Proposed Module Request, Request

[Bryan Clark <bclark redhat com>]

Hi ~

I was looking at starting to schedule ui-review junk even earlier this
release than last time.  A big part of this is that we (the collective)
believe it's best to go after the newly proposed modules now instead of
waiting for debate over acceptance.  This will hopefully put the fear of
usability into new module maintainers earlier, rather than later or when
they see Seth on Halloween [1].

So I'd like to make a request of proposed module maintainers to make
sure to add their packages to jhbuild as they propose the modules.  I
hope others agree this would be a helpful thing to have.  For the ui-
review having the new modules in jhbuild means during a review everyone
could actually be running the same version of the application for
once... wow. ;-)

I already have my own way of adding the modules [2], but I'd definitely
defer to jamesh or someone else on the best way to add them. I think
I've probably over-engineered a solution, but it makes cvs quieter and
less conflicting for me.

Cheers,
~ Bryan
