Hi, this is the thread to discuss the repository metadata to specify which products this repository was created for, and for what purpose. On the call, it was suggested to use: <distro> <id></id> ... </distro> Where the id is specified as a http://cpe.mitre.org/files/cpe-specification_2.0.pdf string. I would rename distro to platform (because we are using cpe) and it is more generic for addons products. For specifying purpose, we said using generic tags would be ok: <keywords> <k>update</k> <k>unstable</k> </keywords> And clients could interpret those tags. Comments? Duncan
