Schedule for 0.8 and tidy the Description.
Changes:
description changed from Since plugins can be hosted on different
sites they can be released under licenses other than the Apache one. We need an
element in plugins.xml that records the type of license a plugin is released
under. This element should be used by the plugin install process to verify that
the user agrees to the terms of that license before download and installation
is started.
For example:
<license name="A.N.Other License" url="http://www.domain.org/licenseText"/>
would result in the user being asked to read the license at the supplied URL
and then typing yes to agree (no skips installation).
<license name="A.N.Other License">
This is the text of the license.
</license>
would result in the license text being displayed and the user being asked to
agree. to Since plugins can be hosted on different sites they can be released
