At the moment that would mean files such as SAR-INF/logging.xml SAR-INF/classloaders.xml SAR-INF/policy.xml We could do it in a backwards compatabile fashion by first scanning environment.xml before looking for new config files. In most applications these configuration files can simply be ommitted and default values will be supplied (much like is done now). So no need to specify SAR-INF/classloaders.xml or SAR-INF/policy.xml unless you really want to define them. The advantages of this approach is that the configuration files become much much easier to validate using Schemas/DTDs as the config files are not mixed. It is also more future proof as we can simply add new config files as we need them if a new aspect warrants it.
