Hi Eric,

please not. If you really want to redo this, please use a simple XML
markup. Let's not introduce another kind of markup if there is
already a well distributed and working.

What's wrong with:

<MAP NAME="CONFIG_ namespace cross-reference generator/analyzer"
URL="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/cml2"
STATUS="Maintained"
DATE="Sat Apr 21 11:41:52 EDT 2001">
<MAINTAINER NAME="Eric S. Raymond"
MAIL="esr@thyrsus.com"/>
<PATCHES DESC="Send all patches here."
MAIL="esr@thyrsus.com" />
<LIST MAIL="kbuild-devel@kbuild.sourceforge.net"
DESC="List for developers"/>
<LIST MAIL="kbuild-user@kbuild.sourceforge.net"
DESC="List for users"/>
