Generating comps.xml

[Alexander Todorov]

Hello,
I've found this quite old document explaining the comps.xml structure:
http://rhlinux.redhat.com/anaconda/comps.html

It mentions the getfullcomps.py script to generate the package sections 
of comps.xml. My comps-extras package contains only images and no helper 
scripts.

Is comps.xml produced manually nowadays? Is there any tool to automate 
comps.xml generation? If not is anybody interested in implementing such 
a tool? Is there a need for one?

Thanks,
Alexander.

Yeah, that's pretty out of date.

Manually done.  Really, it's not that bad to do at all.  It's an XML
file.
