Below is an example "default.xml" that would make up a release. The default.xml would be maintained in a git repository that we could tag, e.g. something like v201704.1 (vYYYYMM.MINOR).

I like the central handle on dependencies, but I don't really like XML. Why not
use the git submodules approach? Can't submodules tag specific revisions?
