I think the about URL should go to page the has information ABOUT the specific release. It just doesn't make any sense to be any other way. It might be nice to also have another element which is an actual download link such as: <rdf:download>http://pear.php.net/get/Structures_DataGrid-0.5.3.tgz</rdf:download> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
