I like the idea to have METADATA files (actually, I have been using a build 
system for the last couple of years which used a similar thing, except that the 
metadata files were actually make includes).

Am I right that this is currently completely undocumented? For this to work, we 
really need an agreement on the semantics.

I wanted to create an article in the wiki, but it seems like I cannot edit 
anything there. Can someone allow me (nigoroll) to edit pages?

Also I would appreciate if someone would start a METADATA documentation, 
otherwise I'll do so when I am allowed to.

Nils
