[PATCH 0/6] XML to represent plugin's information

[Joaquim Rocha <jrocha igalia com>]

This set of patches move the plugin's information out of the code
and into an XML file.
This functionality change was suggested in the following message
to the list:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/grilo-list/2010-June/msg00020.html

So, the XML should receive the same name as its plugin but with the
.xml extension. Its root element should be pluginInfo and inside this
one each element represents the plugin's info as key (element's tag
name) and value (element's contents) pairs.

Another change that should be mentioned is that now the plugin's name is
set from the XML which means it's optional. (Before, it was mandatory.)

I'll send an example XML and a tweak to the test UI for you to be able to
test these changes.


Cheers,

Joaquim Rocha
