Interfaces are evil for this sort of thing. They force users to separate meta-info across multiple places (ie some in config files, some in .class files). I would prefer that all of it be kept in once place which basically means putting it all into config files. Eventually I would hope that we would move to using metainfo support built into the JVM ala http://www.jcp.org/jsr/detail/175.jsp -- Cheers, Peter Donald -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
