(Whoops, I meant to CC the list and forgot. Apologies for duplication)

Maybe you've already seen it and it wasn't helpful, but there is a
"package metadata" page that tries to explain some of this.
http://plt.eecs.northwestern.edu/snapshots/current/doc/pkg/metadata.html
The version I just linked is a pre-release version, which also has an
extra margin note explaining that there are more options for info.rkt
that control collection features (rather than package features).
There's also a new raco command (`raco pkg new`) by Leif that produces a
default info.rkt for you.
