Hi Back and reading mails instead of gift stickers :).
I am going to dive into this pretty soon. I am currently building a "Property Management System" for our Internet application architecture which you might say is a simpler? form of the discussed configuration control, using Jackrabbit. I plan to take what I learn from this and then try to apply that into a configuration control for Shale/Clay. I'll get back to you when that time comes.

I'm not sure what the interface would look like but I suspect it would be just snapping in a abstraction of a resource resolver? >From a web application, how would you specify a label or correct version? I >guess I need to take a look at jackrabbit so I can ask better questions. If this is an itch you need to scratch, I'll help out in the refactoring. This type of integration might give Clay a new facet for not only creating reusable view fragments but also providing a interface to manage them within the product life-cycle.
