Andy Gumbrecht commented on OPENEJB-1791:
-----------------------------------------

I think the system should check the current conf directory and make the 
'conf.d' decision based on what it finds. I am looking at this from a 'I 
already have N+ servers deployed and configured' perspective.

It is not easy to deploy updates when something like this changes over night. 
During the update do I have to or should I move all the 'existing' service 
properties to conf.d, or move the new conf.d/newservice.properties up one level 
and delete conf.d. Or just leave it as is and when an issue arises think along 
the lines of - look 'here' for this and 'there' for that? Then re-write 
installers and patches to fit in again.

A system property to maintain the existing schema as an option would also fit 
the picture. 

OpenEJB is not written exclusively for unix like systems, this is a good thing 
when the developer has 'no' control over the end system. 'conf.d' actually 
'smells' of unix to a Windows administrator.
