It's how configuration works, when there "can be only one" configuration setting. But it is not how inheritance works in languages like Java. In the case of this particular setting, I would say that each package should be allowed its own copy of the setting, and that if we change the setting for a child, then only its children inherit the setting. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
