> The Gem modules give access to various files.
> These are then used by scripts that may create summaries of the output.
> For example public_icla_info.rb uses asf/icla.rb
> These scripts may check that the underlying source has not changed since the 
> last output file was created; this means that the script needs to know the 
> name(s) of the files that the Gem module used. Rather than repeat the file 
> name in the script, it would be handy if the Gem module had a method to 
> return the file name(s). 
> Alternatively the Gem module could have a method to check a timestamp against 
> its source(s) - this would mean that the Gem could use LDAP or SVN to access 
> its source without affecting the calling script.
