"Andrew" refers to the entire release, which has the tool kit, the widgets, and systems build on top of the widgets, such as a direct manipulation application builder (ADEW), embedded language for controlling widgets (Ness), the Andrew Message System, ODA translators and lots of other good stuff. It has no relation/dependencies on Xtk. -Mark
