+Element manifest-server
+-----------------------
+
+At most one manifest-server may be specified. The url attribute
+is used to specify the URL of a manifest server, which is an
+XML RPC service that will return a manifest in which each project
+is pegged to a known good revision for the current branch and
+target.
+
+The manifest server should implement:
+
+  GetApprovedManifest(branch, target)
+
+The target to use is defined by environment variables TARGET_PRODUCT
+and TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT. These variables are used to create a string
+of the form $TARGET_PRODUCT-$TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT, e.g. passion-userdebug.
+If one of those variables or both are not present, the program will call
+GetApprovedManifest without the target paramater and the manifest server
+should choose a reasonable default target.
