catalog --> specialist --> other. It contains no server or Enterprise
Portal files.

PDK 60.x basically contains bundled documentation about the programing model
of EP 6.0, samples, tutorials, and with SP2 still the Eclipse plugins for
the Enterprise Portal development environment. The eclipse plugins are also
available at http://sdn.sap.com/ downloads.
