Subject: Ada Component Registry proposal

I put together an XML DOCTYPE for a Ada Component Registry, and tried it
out on GNADE. If anyone who understands XML would like to look at it and
criticize, I'll send you a copy. But right now I consider it too
preliminary to let loose in the wild. I'll probably have a much better
worked out version by the end of next week. (Oops! Mental note to self,
the registry itself needs a version number. ;-)
I picked GNADE as a test case though, expecting it to be a decent stress
test. Boy was it! For me as well as the XML grammer. I'd like to
comment on a few things that I found and what they mean for a formal
registry, or for the Common Ada Library.
One of the things that the registry does is makes the Zip or tar or
whatever file that you can download more accessable. Much more
accessable. Amazingly more accessable. GNADE as delivered has over a
dozen directories and if you actually compile it, creates a few more.
(And just to confuse you puts some stuff into existing directories
outside the GNADE structure.) With the registry, you can look and see
that most of the source files are children of GNU.DB, and that package
declaration can be found in

"Quality is the Buddha. Quality is scientific reality. Quality is the
goal of Art. It remains to work these concepts into a practical,
down-to-earth context, and for this there is nothing more practical or
down-to-earth than what I have been talking about all along...the repair
of an old motorcycle." -- from Zen and the Art of Motorcycle
