I don't think I have tested boilerplating a component after  
refactoring horde-components (which still isn't finished btw). It may  
very well be broken.

I think the best approach would be to introduce a "horde-components  
init" command that creates all necessary files for a  
library/application to be manageable through horde-components.

As for your original question: .horde.yml and changelog.yml should in  
the long term be the master information files which generate all other  
files. Anything else should be considered a bug.
