I think we can give advice on what the default should be and that people should not stray from that unless they have particular reasons. That advice might be more appropriate for the developers reference than policy, though. Due to the variety and complexity of daemons in the archive, I would be reluctant to require complete consistency, there are likely various edge cases we have not thought about. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are
