== About  ==
* This page outlines a proposal for how the current Higgins [[Components]] page will be redesigned/repurposed to be the Higgins download page.  
* Definitions:
** A '''Solution''' is a specific combination of Higgins [[Components]] that, when assembled and deployed, result in either an infrastructure-level service, or an end-user application.
** A '''Sub-Solution''' is a specific higher level functional Higgins [[Components]] that as a standalone deployment can provide an infrastructure-level service.
** A '''Component''' is a low level Higgins [[Components]] that serves as functional building block in support of Higgins Solutions defined above. 
* The below sections outline the major content points in prioritized order of appearance on the new Higgins download page. 

== Opening Paragraph ==
This page provides an easy one-stop location to download the code you need to be successful with your Higgins based project. The organization of this page has downloads in a progression starting with complete Higgins based solutions listed first, followed by functional sub-solutions and then finishing with individual Higgins component building blocks. 

=== Solution Downloads ===
