You might want to consider the Changes DTD we use in Cocoon to keep track of contributions: here is an example of usage of our DTD. <changes title="History of Changes"> <devs> <person name="Bill Gates" email="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" id="BG"/> ... </devs> <release version="52.3.4" date="to be determined"> <action dev="BG" type="add" due-to="John Smith" due-to-email="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> Added something but I don't know what it does. </action> </release> ... </changes> then this is transformed into HTML and placed on the web site for reference. We should have something like this for every xml.apache project. Stefano.
