I have contemplated some time to write a new front end to our configuration system. I am not sure just a new standardized database and API (that's what I understood Chad's system is) will be sufficient to reach this goal. IMHO what we are missing are parser and converter routines _to_and_from the existing Debian configuration files. In order to achieve this, each and every package maintainer would also have to maintain the interface routines to the respective package, else modifications to the _original_ format will go unnoticed. thoughts Erich THINK Püntenstrasse 39 8143 Stallikon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Fingerprint: BC9A 25BC 3954 3BC8 C024 8D8A B7D4 FF9D 05B8 0A16 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
