I read through the two blog entries, and I am just too new to buildout.cfg to understand what you are doing. Is there a tutorial you can point me to that will bring me up to the level you guys are at so I can begin to appreciate what you have created? Perhaps I just need more caffeine, but after 5 shots I am still in a fog....;-) Thanks!
