This still sounds like the best bet for my purposes, providing if it can live 
up to its description.

Do you know if it's possible to specify ALL sites somehow. i.e. is there a base 
site type in the same way there is a base library ID?

Auditing is one of our base requirements and I'd really like to automate this 
task as much as possible.

Hi Paul,

Feature Stapling<http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb861862.aspx> is what 
you want to activate features for specific site definitions -
"Causes the attachment of a Feature to all new instances of sites that use a 
given site definition, without modifying the site definition or creating code 
routines to activate the Feature on each site. Also known as a feature site 
template association"

Curse you Outlook and your Ctrl-Enter shortcut. :)

To finish: what is the correct process for upgrading a feature deployed by a 
solution? Do I increment versions for both the solution and feature and then 
then just run stsadm -upgradesolution?

Hi all,

How can I specify that a feature is activated by default on all new sites? Or 
should this be defined in the solution manifest?? The ActivateOnDefault flag 
seems only to refer to installation and web app creation.

Also, what is the correct process for upgrading a feature deployed by a 
solution? Do I increment versions for both the solution and feature and
