As far as I'm concerned, it's data that should be the same, irrespective

what we've got now.
We need to put this in a place where package publishing software
such as Source Juicer can get at it.
If it's not being served up by a depot, then where should it go?
Okay, I don't think that has been clear so far.
If this is a reference document, it can't be served up from the web
directory of a repository, as that is customisable by an administrator
(via --content-root) so we can't guarantee the file will be there or
contain the correct data.
So, this needs to be located somewhere centrally (like a DTD would be)
on opensolaris.org (similar to how DTDs work) or on opensolaris.com or
on sun.com.
I'm assuming that is desirable anyway, as you don't want to tie updates
of the classification file to updates of the depot software?
