It needs to be listed as a scan target somehow. > We might need some additional metadata for the 100 or so subprojects that do > not appear in committee-info.txt. Definitely need additional metadata. AFAIK there is no central registry for sub-projects, and PMCs can create as many as they like. I don't think it's possible to automatically extract this information from the main website, so Whimsy will have to rely on data provided by the PMCs. Someone needs to design a data store for the information and then persuade projects to keep it updated. I think it will be a long long haul. > Thanks, > Craig > > Craig L Russell > c...@apache.org >
