I personally prefer the ATS install works similar to how the HTTPD project currently works. Everything for the project, by default, goes under a single prefix /usr/local/<ats-version>. If a user wants to compile a new version, in the default installation there is no mixing of config files or anything else. More advanced users can deal with re-configuring the software however they want to but atleast the default configuration it would be easy to locate all of the files for ATS. Sridhar
