+\skbheading{The Intent}
+
+Provide a \LaTeX package that helps to create and maintain a repository for long-living documents. It's
+probably not usefull for some short-term articles, however, I learned that most of my short term articles
+eventually become part of my long-term documents. Here you go. The repository should allow for easy access
+to 'stuff': text blocks, senteces, paragraphs, sections, complete chapters. But also to figures, code
+sniplets, examples, etc. And I do want to limit the amount of repetition of information. For example, if
+I use a certain example in an article I might want to use the same (identical) example in a book or a
+presentation or lecture notes. If I only copy the example I have to maintain several sources, and over time
+I will not remember which of them is normative. As a side effect, I also want to optimise document creation
+and limit the \LaTeX or document class specific code in my documents. \ No newline at end of file
