I propose to enhance the Gump descriptor by putting in tags that help to
fully define the resources used by a project.
Below is the example of a project using it, with the new parts commented.
<module name="krysalis-centipede">

<!-- the phisical location of the server -->
<site hostname="krysalis.sourceforge.net"

<!-- a more detailed dscription of the project -->
<detailed>
Krysalis Centipede is a project build system
based on Apache Ant.
It uses prepackaged modules called "cents" that it downloads and
installs automatically,
which can be used as Ant tasks or easy to use targets.
Forrest is a powerful cent based on Cocoon that gives the power
of the Forrest project
in building project documentation.
Available cents are under krysalis.org/jjar
</detailed>
<!-- ehat the goals of this project -->
<what>
<goal>Make an easy build system. Users should just run
build.</goal>
<goal>Make an extensible build system. Installation and use of
extensions should be automatic.</goal>
<goal>Make a powerful build system. Advanced users should be
able to exploit and master the system to its full.</goal>
</what>
<!-- the itch that needed scrathing-->
<why>
Ant is a great build system, but if you have to bootstrap new
projects or update the current
system, it'a a pain. Centipede is born to create there new
features for Ant users.
