+The IRAF applications software is decomposed into a set of modular
+\fIpackages\fR, i.e., collections of related CL callable programs.
+The requirements for each package are outlined, and the interdependence of
+the separate packages are described. This document concentrates on the
+scientific capabilities of the IRAF system, i.e., on the form of the system
+as viewed by the user at the command language (CL) level. Though an attempt
+has been made to include descriptions of all packages currently planned
+for the system, we have presented only the minimum requirements for each
+package. Finally, the current KPNO reduction and analysis software is
+summarized, giving for each existing program the name of the corresponding
+IRAF package which will provide comparable functionality.
