Ah. Maybe I'm confused about what this page
(http://avalon.apache.org/framework/api/org/apache/avalon/framework/configuration/Configuration.html)
is saying. It says the Configuration is typically built from
an XML document... so I should be able to use *any* XML
document as source for the Configuration builder? I don't
quite know what " The data model is a subset of XML's..." means.
