Add descriptor files to repositories
Put, into each repository, a small file that describes the repository content to GetComponents: - list of thorns - where the thorns are in the repository's directory structure - etc.?
This information then does not need to be repeated in thorn lists.

I mean that these files should be in repositories, so that one can easily see what thorns are in the repositories.

Do you mean you would like to only specify within a thornlist 'Thorn X from arrangement list Y (which would mean a URL to a thornlist)' and within that arrangement list you would get the remaining information (like how to actually get to the thorns)?

I mean e.g. the definition of REPO_PATH. I'm not sure about arrangements -- I'm not sure whether a repository should specify what the contained thorns' arrangement names are. This makes sense for large repositories, but not for small repositories.

Do you mean 'arrangements', as most thorns use their own repositories?
