Or should be assume that only the read-only specification is necessary? If you think I'm putting a username/password for read/write access to my repo into META.yml, you're dead wrong! We're talking here about public repositories. Sourceforge for instance uses username=anonymous and password=empty for anonymous access. I've seen other CVS repos with some dummy non-empty password.

Can you give a specific example? We're in overtime for finalizing the
spec, so we need to nail this quick.
For cvs we don't need the url parameter but rather:
repository = {
type = cvs,
vc_spec = {
username = anonymous,
password = ,
repository =
:pserver:anonym...@srezic.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/srezic,
module = Tk-Pod,
port = undef, # set if different from standard 2401
},
web = ...,
...
}
The contents inside vc_spec are completely VC-specific. For CVS it would
be these parameters, other VCs could have other parameters (sorry, I
don't know anything else but cvs, svn, and git).
Theoretetically the URL needed for svn or git could also go into such a
vc_spec structure, but this would probably be too complicated.
Ah, there's already prior art. www.ohloh.net also needs the source
repository (they call it enlistment) fully specified. Here's what may
be entered in ohloh's forms:
CVS:
Enter the source control URL (e.g.
:pserver:anonymous:@myproject.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/myproject)
Username
Password
CVS module name
SVN:
Enter the source control URL (e.g.
svn://mywebsite.org/svn/myproject/trunk)
Username
Password
Mercurial:
Enter the source control URL (e.g.
http://www.mywebsite.org/pub/scm/hg/myproject)
Git:
Enter the source control URL (e.g.
git://git.mywebsite.org/pub/scm/git/myproject.git)
Enter an optional Git branch name
Bazaar:
Enter the source control URL (e.g. bzr://www.mywebsite.org/myproject.bzr)
So I think the optional branch for git should be added to the spec.

Is there a use case for its use? Both Subversion, and Git repositories can use http://; URLs, so there needs to disambiguate them. No. I meant type not format. In the example given, the URL was http://github.com and the type was github. It seemed a bit redundant to explicitly say what public website repository is being used, when it was in the domain part of the URL.

I don't have strong opinions over whether format is renamed to vcs or whatever. yeah I agree. I was too wondering why two fields. I nearly suggested dropping type as-is, but renaming format as type Graham.
