Exactly my point, you can make the configuration method support a lot of power but only require simple configuration.
Now, multiple config files could possibly confuse users, no doubt about that. I don't think I'd like that. Good thing that configuration is pluggable, so any kind of config is support-able. The main thing, as my main point has always been, is that the internal workins will need to be beefed up. But that's a post-1.3 thing we can discuss more about when the time comes. -Pat > > It's about "scalability", and in this case scaling down to simpler > > projects. > > If it's scaling _down_ you're worried about, surely making as many > elements and attributes as possible optional is the Right Way?
