You think so, ok. I have nearly a dozen of examples where current M-T broke more
things, than it fixed. It is purely a matter of perspective.

We need a site management system, but not something like current M-T.

Leading to a table which needs to be extended with each and every configuration
option I add to MidCOM. Right now, we already have literally dozens of such
options (around 50 I guess) part of which are system-wide, part of it
site-specific. Some options are even complex types, not simple ports or prefixes.

Using a DB table is no real option here as it lacks flexibility. See my other
mail for a better solution.

Live long and Prosper!
