There are third party repositories which also publish modular metadata. I know this because in yum.theforeman.org we do this. Do we fall under relengs producing composes?

If you are interested in it, I recommend starting with overview.xml file. It
shows a skeleton of the format. It's so small I can quote it here:

<index xmlns="http://fedoraproject.org/metadata/moduleindex"; version="" 
revision="">
   <module name="">
       <stream name=""> <!-- DNF wants versions and contexts to differ in @summary 
etc. -->
           <build version="" context="" static="" arch="" summary="" 
description="">
                                   <!-- @static defaults to false. -->
               ...
               <references comunity="" documentation="" tracker=""/>

Is comunity a typo for community?

A grand plan how to implement and deploy this format is outlined in
top-level README.md
<https://github.com/fedora-modularity/libmodulemd/blob/main/xml_specs/README.md>.
Basically it will be injected into createrepo_c tool to produce the XML data
in YUM repositories.

I really like integration into the existing tooling like createrepo_c. That was a massive gap in functionality. The plan is rather light on these details so I'd be interested to see how you plan to expose this functionality.
