<h1 class="topictitle1">Method Plug-in</h1>
<div><p>All content is organized in method plug-ins. A method plug-in is a container
for method packages which, in turn, contain the method and process content.
Method plug-ins and method packages allow you to organize your content at
a level of granularity that suits your needs for authoring and reusing the
content. </p>
<p>When you create a method plug-in, you will usually want to reuse content
in other plug-ins. You may want to modify or extend the content in these other
plug-ins or add your own content. When you create a plug-in you
can reference any number of other plug-ins that want to use in this way. A
method plug-in can also be stand-alone and not reference other plug-ins.</p>
