+Third-Party Code
+================
 
-The `third_party` directory hosts Nix expressions that package software that I
-cannot or have not found in other Nix package repositorys like `nixpkgs` or
-`depot`.
+Code under this folder is one of the following:
+
+1. Externally developed dependencies which have been imported ("vendored") into
+   this repository. These dependencies come with their own licenses and whatever
+   else.
+
+2. Code that is developed inside of this repository, but released to an external
+   repository via [Copybara][].
