A bit of unfortunate overloading, but unavoidable, I suppose. A
"Rational" Subsystem means something more (views, multiple versions
of packages/children), etc. I agree, however, that it is reasonable
(more than reasonable) to call a hierarchy of packages (properly
organized) as a "subsystem". Perhaps Rational will have to rename
their stuff :-)
