You're right, requiring it is a bit much.  Perhaps an opt-in
"project-folder: doap-uri" file in the projects/ folder in CVS would
be a good way to let folks use it.

Anyways, Edd Dumbill has a nifty little doap -> html app in svn which
looks like it would make a good starting point.  I'll get something
together and send it to the list at some non-specific future date.
