:-) MCConfiguration is working /very/ well for me. It is a nice
incremental improvement over my manual process. I'm not using the
"Store" capability in the configuration browser, though, because it will
quickly make a mess of my MC repository browser (I've already got too
many packages to scroll through there). It seems more sensible to write
my configs to disk during deployment so I can "version" them by release
number. I assume that's what most people are doing? ...or is there a
sensible way to use them in a MCBrowser that I've just missed? Maybe a
naming convention that makes the MC browser show only one package entry
per config (as opposed to per /instance/ of a config).
