What component does Joomla use for extensions?

What component does Joomla use for displaying the downloads available in the extensions, where you can rate and write reviews of the extensions?

Best of Joomla uses it as well:

Hi kvdman,

A custom version of the commercial extension 'Mosets Tree' is used for Joomla! Extensions Directory:

I bought mtree because I love the download section at http://extensions.joomla.org/ and I want to make software repository exactly like that. But after I installed mtree I noticed that it is a kind of link directory.

Now, here is the 1 000.000. buck question:
What mtree modules I need to install and what do I need to modify in order to have a website like http://extensions.joomla.org/ ?
