I am talking about the format in which developers publicly offer for download the code for new versions of the software they create.
Actually, that had been one of the original topics of the OSS-QM project: a database of packages, releases, download urls and some canonical url (redirector) scheme. Part of that meanwhile had been obsoleted by the use modern SCMs like Git. But still there should be some canonicalization of things like branch/tag names, etc. This doesn't mean everybody should use exactly the same conventions, but rather formally described transformation rules, so we can do fully automatic imports. --mtx -- --- Hinweis: unverschlüsselte E-Mails können leicht abgehört und manipuliert werden !
