Opinions?
One of the ideas that we've been seriously considering implementing is a
Fedora specific extension to DOAP, where the DOAP files would be checked
into git. It should be straightforward to add a Fedora extension field
for "tags", allowing the maintainer to add tags, along with other useful
metadata about the package that we don't know from other sources.
Then, tagger/packages can simply read in the DOAP files and use those
tags in addition to the user-generated ones.
