Actually there was a brief discussion a while ago about whether we could use a BOM with clusters, etc. so that we could publish modules using their spec version. That way we might push updates for individual modules without needing to republish a whole release. Incidentally, +1 on the original proposal, and should probably have followed up on another thread ... Best wishes, Neil
