Acknowledged. I do want to hear from Mike Drob and John Vines first before I take any further action on this, though. If they're okay with what Sean and Josh suggested (making the changes to 1.6.0 without removing the examples), I'll do that. If not, I'll re-apply the commit to 1.7.0 only.
Either way, I'll put in a follow-on ticket for auto-generating the example configs in the build and moving them from conf/ to docs/ in 1.7.0. I'll still wait for their feedback first, though, so I get the initial wording of those tickets right. -- Christopher L Tubbs II http://gravatar.com/ctubbsii On Sat, Apr 5, 2014 at 1:05 PM, Josh Elser <[email protected]> wrote: > You have to think about the impact that you put on people downstream that > are expecting those files to be in place.
