Things change, that is a fact that I'm just not sure we can generically
pre-empt, nor try.
Interestingly, Gump deals with a lot of the issues we are discussing here.
The main difference is that Gump purely metadata based, and lives only in
the 'now'. For changes it support aliasing.

BTW: Gump metadata management gets incredibly stale, incredibly quickly, if
folks aren't nagged. I'm not proposing going that far w/ metadata, just
realizing the similarities in situation...
FWIIW: In Gump (and the repo it is producing) group = CVS module, not
project. That could be changed.

Subject: RE: URL Syntax parts
I would prefer to NOT have the TLP represented in the URI if possible.
Projects can be promoted. The package name for James was always
org.apache.james, and so did not change when the project was promoted.
Point being that I'm not sure if the URI should reflect the ASF
organization. A project name ought to be unique across the ASF.
