[Distutils] [PATCH] Write distribution meta-data an XML file

[Paul Prescod]

Amos, we had agreed to this step at the conference. Great mind reading!

Programmer's Package Description (PPD) is defined here:

http://velocity.activestate.com/docs/ActivePerl/site/lib/XML/PPD.html

PPD is based on OSD:

which is a pseudo-standard that never got much traction. Some PPD files
are here:

I've also stumbled across this one:

There is a link to examples on that page...
