Comment:
Even though CollecTor is currently not using this file, we should add more
information about files being served than just the filename.
However, I think that computing file digests is too much, because we'd
either have to recompute these digests for all files once per day or store
them somewhere. If we really need these digests on the consuming side,
then let's consider adding them. But until that's the case, let's try
something simpler.
I wrote a patch that includes sizes and last-modified times along with
filenames. These can be looked up really quickly while writing the XML
file. While touching this code I also made sure that the index.xml file
itself is not contained and I fixed the encoding issue introduced by the
Python 3 upgrade.
Please review
