You can just add file elements for each of these in the files section of the manifest.

<file>file1.xml</file>
<file>file2.xml</file>
<file>file3.xml</file>

Hope that helps,

They will be added to the root folder of that module definition.  The Files element we're looking at is inside of a Folder element, which has a FolderName element, specifying the root folder in DesktopModules in which that module's files live.

Hope that helps,
