Hi, Thanks for your response. We retained CatalogFactory instance in our backend code where we parsed the chain config xml. You see any issues with this?

We know this is a flaw in chain and we intended to fix it for chain2 (which is in the current trunk of chain). But currently there is nobody who really has the time make chain2 ready for a release. Simone Tripodi was working on it and he intended to implement the configuration module using modello [1]. But that seems to be blocked until a new modello release hits the road...
