My preference would be a simple text file with a table, similar to files/uid-gid.txt in api.git. Then we could just modify the existing tooling to generate the wiki page form it, and wouldn't need any special tools to create the other files. Alternatively, it could be in XML. While I'm not a large fan of XML, it seems a natural choice here, because metadata.xml, the DTD, and the XML and Relax-NG schemas are all from the XML world. Ulrich
