I agree with the sentiment, although I think a one-word limit may be a |
| 11 |
bit draconian. For example, Ciaran's latest GLEP is titled |
| 12 |
"Per-Category metadata.xml files". I think that title is perfectly |
| 13 |
succinct, and I lack the creativity necessary to come up with an |
| 14 |
equivalent one-word version. |
