Sebb,

I have no particular issue with including the file, and I'm not sure why
you think I or anyone else would.  This is not the canonical path for
podlings.xml though, and may be out of date.  My recommendation is to do a
302 to the right location, so that consumers are always getting the latest
but I know not all tools can follow 302's.  If there are tools out there
that need it, and you want to make those tools get it from this location, I
have no issue with you committing your proposed change to the website
repo.  I would recommend that we also include the .dtd and .xsl files as
well.

John
