Hi folks.

We need to move the Info method of Plugin and Theme up to Pluggable so 
that they use the same stuff.  As a result, we need to form the XML used 
to define plugin/theme info a little better.  As a result of changing 
the format, all existing themes will explode.

This has to be done, because the areas that are published for a theme 
need to go in that XML, and the XML needs to be stable.

I want to do this this week.  I can publish a schema for the XML on the 
wiki (Relax?), and others can look it over.

The schema should allow for themes and plugins to use the same format of 
xml data, since they're both Pluggable.  Soon after the info method of 
plugins would go away to be replaced by the Pluggable info method, 
meaning plugins wouldn't need to execute any more to get their infos. 
It would just use the xml file instead (although the plugin should still 
be sandboxed so it's known to work).

Your consideration is appreciated.

Owen
