The files in this directory are PMC descriptor files When adding files to this directory, please ensure that the list in the file ../committees.xml is also updated. All the files in this directory must have the extension '.rdf' and the file name must be the same as the committee name. [This may not be the same as the website host name initial component.] The file stem must match the asfext:pmc tag, for example: The file abcd.rdf must contain the tag: The PMC descriptor files in this directory can be referenced in a project DOAP using the shorthand: rather than needing to use the full URL. Note: PMC descriptor files can alternatively be stored elsewhere. If so, the name can be anything. However the extension must be '.rdf' and the asfext:pmc tag must be the committee name. In this case please ensure that the 'rdf:resource' attribute in the DOAP contains the full URL of the PMC rdf file For example: The PMC descriptor file for the HTTPD project is currently stored in this directory (see ../committees.xml). There are currently two DOAPs for HTTPD (see ../projects.xml): http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/site/trunk/content/doap.rdf http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/site/trunk/content/mod_ftp/doap.rdf These DOAPs contain the shorthand entry: By contrast, the PMC descriptor file for Flex is stored at: http://flex.apache.org/pmc_Flex.rdf There is a project DOAP at http://flex.apache.org/doap_Flex.rdf This contains the entry: N.B. These files were previously stored under https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/infrastructure/site-tools/trunk/projects/data_files and were listed in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/infrastructure/site-tools/trunk/projects/pmc_list.xml
