What do you (and the other commiters) think of the following? I'm not 100% sure if I'm right. --- Commit-Message --- An ugly fix (but didn't want to do big changes right before the release (if we really should do such a change at all)) to allow multi-line Descriptions (as given in the Example for the description-datatype). If something is configured directly (not thru RuntimeConfigurable) text is converted to String on a line-by-line basis (when using crimson) and line-separators get cut off. If xerces is used text is passed in complete and an extra line-separator is added. I think that may be better for the moment than loosing some lines. --- Commit-Message --- Nico
