Software management tool
Depot was a software management tool developed at Carnegie Mellon University by Wallace Colyer and Walter Wong as part of the Andrew II Project. CMU Depot put an emphasis on sharing applications across the network. It were developed for an AFS environment, but worked with NFS as well. Applications were organized into collections of related software, each living in its own directory tree. Users were provided with a central directory containing symbolic links to the application binaries. It's probably this point which inspired Bob Glickstein to create Stow.
