The only downfall is you end up with lots of package/developer specific=20 policies which may become complex and a nuisance. It is likely better to ha= ve=20 more of a global policy.

I do think something like a maintainers notes URI in a metadata.xml file wo= uld=20 be of use for many reasons. Not putting a bunch of rules or stuff in the=20 metadata.xml file. =2D-=20 William L.
