Where is this installer config so that we can update it without bugging you Scott?

We had this discussion in a forum and came to no conclusion as to how to
ensure these are kept in synch. What is clearly needed is running
portions of the testsuite against the installer generated
configurations. Some work to run the installer in a command line mode
will be needed for this.

Subject: Re: [JBoss-dev] Keeping installer templates in-synch

The problem here is the old one of trying to build things on top of
other things.

If you have no buy-in to the process from your providers you
are left trying to hit a moving a target.

Solutions:
1) Make it easy for people to maintain it
2) Write tests so you know when it breaks
3) Make it a more first class construct such that developers
can "automagically" maintain it or at least know early when it is
affected.
4) "Lock down" the provider's config and complain when they
change it without notifying you.

Somehow we need to do a better job keeping the installer xml
descriptor templates in-synch with the module xml descriptors, so
whenever a descriptor changes the template needs updating.

I just fixed a trivial one, probably my bad:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-2742

The other thing we need to clarify is whether the installer
distribution is the "recommended" one, since more cases (forums /
support) will start appearing where we are not sure about the used
(user/customer) config.
