The Berlin Packaging API: the Solution?

,----[ Quote ]
| "Some time ago," Washington writes to the Linux Foundation desktop mailing 
| list, "it was discussed on an LSB face-to-face meeting that an API should be 
| developed that allows ISVs to install software packages which integrate into 
| the package manager." The idea, the Berlin Packaging API, sizzled out, apart 
| from a Wiki page with a rudimentary proposal. Washington decided to take 
| matters into his own hands, and has designed and implemented a prototype of 
| this packaging API - and he imaginatively called it the LSB Package API, and 
| it uses a simple D-Bus interface and an XML-based package description format.
