Not had time to read all the mail on list in the last few hours, but in the 
interest of sooner rather than later...

I've posted some thoughts on this to the list before, and planned to dig it up 
by Wednesday for the meetup. I'd also hacked together support into the branch 
of 2.x that works with attributes. At the most basic, I'm thinking we should 
deploy a trimmed version under the 4.0.0 model to the repository as the 
interchangable format under the current layout, then the actual model as it 
stands at the time separately.

It would be nice to consider a long term migration to extensible metadata for 
this aspect of the repository, while retaining original artifacts as a separate 
file.

Cheers,
- Brett
