Konstantin Kolinko commented on GUMP-116: ----------------------------------------- I think it is not needed. There is <url> element in a module [1] that links to the official web site of a project. That should be enough, because the official site is the authoritative source of information on a project. The site is always maintained better than Gump metadata. [1] http://gump.apache.org/metadata/module.html#url > Promote using html in <description/> fields > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: GUMP-116 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUMP-116 > Project: Gump > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Object Model (GOM) > Affects Versions: GOM-0.5 > Reporter: Leo Simons > Fix For: GOM-0.5 > > > It would be cool if <description/> fields contained more useful content. For > example, it might make sense to provide links to a wiki page with developer > information about debugging a particular project, or links to additional > build functionality a project utilizes outside of gump (like nightly build > download locations). This would mean the <description/> content should get a > prominent place in gump-generated docs, the GOM docs are updated to detail > that one can, in fact, use HTML, and that we promote the practice in some way. > Thinking of maven POMs, their <description/> and <longDescription/> contents > might need to be extended to have that kind of information relevant for > developers. One could have a <developerInfo/> in addition to those, I dunno. > Maybe the maven people have something plannen already :-D -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
