Summary of repository URI proposals

[Tim Anderson <tm...@netspace.net.au>]

There are now four proposals available at:
 http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ASFRepository/Proposals

. Repository URI Syntax
  http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ASFRepository/URISyntax

  This specifies the core URI layout, which the other
  proposals extend.

. Common Build Version Specifier

http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ASFRepository/CommonBuildVersio
nSpecifier

  This specifies versioning for projects which perform
  formal and interim builds.

. Common Distribution Artifact Specifier

http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ASFRepository/CommonDistributio
nArtifactSpecifier

  This specifies the URI format for source and binary
  distribution artifacts.

. Java Artifact Specifier
  http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ASFRepository/JavaArtifacts

  This specifies the URI formats for java artifacts.

To do
-----

. change Java Artifact Specifier to refer to
  Common Distribution Artifact Specifier, for source and
  binary distributions

. factor out signature-artifact-specifier and signature-keys
  from Java Artifact Specifier, into a new proposal,
  (Signature Artifact Specifier?), as it is relevant to
  Common Distribution Artifact Specifier as well.

. factor out license-specifier from Java Artifact Specifier,
  into a new proposal, (License Artifact Specifier?), as it is
  relevant to Common Distribution Artifact Specifier as well.

. determine what additional support is required for C/C++ projects.
  Common Distribution Artifact Specifier aims to handle binary
  and source distributions for these projects - what else
  is required?

. move common BNF somewhere else. E.g:
    versioned-artifact-name
    artifact-name
    short-version
    debug
    arc-ext
  are contained in both Java Artifact and Common Distribution
  Artifact Specifiers.
