I think that would be definitively nice, so every module should have such
header informations. Additionally I porpose to specify a mentor for each
module and list him also in this header. (That would be easier for the
assignments of bugs).
With regard to Marcs proposal to put the comments in the code
(PHPDoc-standard) I think this should be done at the wiki. If we extract
the documentation and the comments with external tools like PHPDoc, we
have yet another format (without history).

Maybe Toni Pignataro could expand his proposals for templates for the
wiki-documentation with such a header (in the style of PHPDoc or JAVADoc
etc.).

The normal way is to contact this list and all contributors are invited to
vote. To manage the code in developer-branches is a good idea, but I don't
know how to manage svn-authorisations for the branches (if we need that at
all(?)).
In the moment the testplatform is our installation 'mapbender_dev' (on
wms1.ccgi.de). But there is no access from 'outside' to checkout the svn
sources.
The mapbender.org-server has not the resources to act as a test-server.
But there  is a discussion in progress with the osgeo...

best regards
ULi
