I am going through a number of scenarios for setting up OpenSim from scratch on a new system as if I was a new user... checking documents, .ini file comments and seeing where simplifications can be made.

Rather than raise Mantis issue or suggestions for small things, I hope folks on this list will not mind me raising a question or two here which can probably be resolved quickly one way or the other.

1. The handling of FlotsamAssetCache.ini. FlotsamAssetCache is enabled as the choice between the alternatives in the example .ini setup. The setup will load config-include\FlotsamAssetcache.ini.. but if its not present it prints out a message but uses the defaults. I wonder if this can be simplified and just avoid one step or this message by just renaming the example file config-include\FlotsamAssetcache.ini.example to config-include\FlotsamAssetcache.ini ?

2. Like we have a convention of Public Port 8002 and (firewall protected if we wish) PrivatePort 8003 for a grid.. we have a convention of port 9000 for a standalone PublicPort. But have we established a convention for the PrivatePort for a standalone? If not, can we do that? As ports 9000-90xx tend to get used for add on regions in a setup.. we ought to avoid port numbers just after 9000. Would 9900 work as a suggestion?
