From a dumb user standpoint, I like the config files. I want something I can just copy around, version control, and edit with vi, and don't need to hire a java developer to configure. What would make life easier for me is if you removed all the XML bs and just had name/value pairs with a # comment above it describing what it is for, and the default setting. I do agree with briggs that there are too many seperate places to edit, and having a single file would be nice. regards Ian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
