> About Software Collections
> --------------------------
> Software Collections give you the power to build, install, and use
> multiple versions of software on the same system, without affecting
> system-wide installed packages. Each collection is delivered as a group
> of RPMs, with the grouping being done using the name of the collection
> as a prefix of all packages that are part of the software collection.
> 
> The SCLo SIG in CentOS
> ----------------------
> The Software Collections SIG group is an open community group
> co-ordinating the development of the SCL technology, and helping curate
> a reference set of collections. In addition to the collection NodeJS
> being released here, we also build and deliver databases, web servers,
> and language stacks including multiple versions of PostgreSQL, MariaDB,
> Apache HTTP Server, Python, Ruby, Ruby on Rails and others.
