I can imagine their reasons. That's fine for me that they chose not to
relate the toolkit to the interface. But we have other successful
organizations that follows that standard we're trying to use here, so
it is pointless to keep mentioning them. I did that also by mentioning
Apache, but the goal was to point that we're not alone. Let's try then
to focus on pros and cons, and put it straight.

That's right. But the goal here is to have to *use* umit.core,
umit.whatever as much as those libraries can, so we don't have to
rwrite things and the get our code more solid. That's simple: if
everyone uses UmitConf to deal with ini files, it will grow more solid
as more people use, add features, improve and fix bugs.

It is a library under Umit Project. That's the reason for umit name,
not the scanning interface. You've got that name also in UMPA, and it
is not for scanning sake.


Cheers!
