Depends. If your type has any other customizations (e.g., workflows,
caching policies, metadata constraints, etc.) then you need to tweak the
releavant tools, as well.
I would recommend doing this as follows:
- Start from a "clean" site, created via "Configured CMF Site" (so
that it uses the GenericSetup tool and the "baseline" profile).
- Add your type information, skins, etc. and test.
- Once everything works, visit the 'portal_setup' tool and create
a new snapshot.
- Compare that snapshot against the "initial_configuration" one,
to review your changes.
