I think the right answer is in both the project description and the 
individual name entries.  Probably make it an optional section in both 
places.  Hmmm.  Maybe better is that it is required for the project, 
even if all it says is "Varies, see components."

I'm also thinking deeply about what you said vis-a-vis uncgi.  Maybe the 
best thing to do is just write a cgi-bin program in Ada, and if 
necessary, convert some of the uncgi routines to Ada to avoid any 
inherent buffer overflow problems.  That would allow me to make the 
actual query screen pure HTML that runs the cgi-bin program to do 
selections.  Of course, for now all I plan is an XML to HTML converter 
that will allow the entire registry to be viewed as pure HTML.
