In the case of Maven, it would seem to me that a <bio/> or <homepage/>

Working on adding <url/> element as we speak.

Gah; bike shedding at work! Just having each project (and the member list) keep it updated via their own pages seems much simpler and in a very simple way it makes it clear that the committer did an opt-in.

Actually, I don't believe so. The proposed <url/> element will presumably be added to the input source from which the Maven Project Team page is generated. It will still be up to the individual to explicitly provide it, and will be monitored and maintained by the

project.

After that point, one of us will screen scrape it. ;-)


You won't need to screen scrape. You could use XPath / XSLT...

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-turbine-maven/project.xml?rev=HEAD

search for //developer

Looks like there'll be a new <homepage> element in there soon too...

Doesn't this lead to loads of duplication of developer info? Surely they need to be included by reference?


Cheers,

Ben.
