CoopX (http://coopx.eu.org/): standard format to exchange information
on projects hosting systems

     After some discussions and reflexions initiated by the [13]FSFE
     France and the GET ([14]ENST, [15]ENST Bretagne et [16]INT Evry),
     the CoopX project was born June, the 6th of 2001.

     The goal of [17]CoopX is to define a standard format based on XML
     to exchange information on projects hosted by facilities such as
     [18]SourceForge, [19]Serveur Libre, [20]tuxfamily, [21]Savannah.
     With this format a project maintainer could migrate his project
     from one hosting platform to the other or mirror it.

     The format will be designed cooperatively by the development groups
     actively involved in the building and the maintainance of hosting
     facilities.

     The actual protagonists are :
     * [22]ENST
     * [23]ENST Bretagne
     * [24]INT
     * [25]GET
     * [26]GNU
     * [27]tuxfamily
     * [28]puresource
     * [29]phpgroupware
     * [30]SourceForge

     If you are aware of Savannah like (or SourceForge like ;-) servers
     in some countries, suggest the lead of this effort to join CoopX.

     All [31]archives of CoopX mailing lists are public.
