I agree with Kilon. May be he is true about a lack of a package/class reference documentation/system like in java or dotnet but I find the question a little biased and SO policy is right on that : "questions to find (...) tools, libraries (...) are off-topic, they tend to attract opinionated answers and spam. Describe the problem (...)". If he already downloaded the VM, he could have asked in the newsgroup instead. May be building a tool (javadoc like, extracting class and method comments with additional tags) could be of some interest ? Not only for newcomers. Regards, Alain Le 18/10/2014 02:54, Sean P.

I disagree and I downvoted the question because its clear he did not even bother to google for documentation. He asked: "Does there exist any comprehensive reference for what each one [Package] is" The answer is "no". How can he found this out without asking?
I have to agree with Nicolai here. He wasn't asking "how do I find the docs for package Xyz?" in which case search would be obvious. What exactly would he type into google to find out if Pharo had a package catalog, like Squeak Map? I think it's a logical question that could be difficult to google.
