I haven't heard anything mentioned about this - there are at the moment neither timing requirements nor comments on expandability. > 2.

Application vendors shouldn't be mucking with /etc/resolv.conf, especially not on MeeGo (yes, I know you said it was just an example). If there's something that's particularly important to be in a specific place that *does* have app impacts, there's no problem with calling it out, as a practical matter it's more likely to get tested for explicitly in the system tests if it's called out. _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
