Re: [boost] Metadata pull requests

I'm curious about this metadata idea. Maybe there has been a discussion about it and I didn't see it. But in any case I have a couple of questions: a) what is the immediate intended purpose and benefit? b) what are some possible future intended purposes and benefits? c) why was json chosen rather than some xml schema. The reason I ask this is that your documentation build system is based on xml transforms. It seems to me that (not having answers to the a and b above) that a more natural choice for something like would be some xml schema.
