Much more sane than what we have now, thank you.
My only question is about the name of the "subproject" element. If you
haven't read the GLEP, can you tell me whether Foo is a subproject of
Bar or vice-versa?
<project>
<name>Foo</name>
<email>[email protected]</email>
<subproject ref="[email protected]"/>
</project>
<project>
<name>Bar</name>
<email>[email protected]</email>
</project>
Putting the name aside, I expected the mapping to go in the other
direction by analogy with relational databases.
This is also misleading with the current name:
<subproject inherit-members="1"/>
That looks like the subproject inherits the members of the parent
project, right? But it's the other way around:
* optional inherit-members="" attribute whose non-empty value
indicates that subproject members are to be considered members of
the parent project as well.
If everyone likes and wants to keep the name _sub_project, I think
_inherit_ is the wrong word to use, since children inherit from parents.
