They're screwed anyway. Config changes. Options to partially unscrew them: 1. Allow config to be just verified, and advise them that they need a new version if we don't have any sources available. 2. Move config as part of the sys/ tree (not a good option, IMO, as we'll want configuration of the entire source tree at a later date. Might be a good temporary measure, though). 3. Separate the changing and the static data in config. Now, who does the work? ;-) Eivind.
