Re: 'config' vs. 'policy'

Michael,

Good question, no good answer that I've heard.

Someone said that everything is policy.
Rephrasing:
    "If ( backup_count(X) < 2 ) then replicate(X)"
    "If ( exists (ethernet.interface[2]) )
	then ethernet.interface[2].autosense = on"

(It would be more interesting if it were "Minimum backup count for any
file is 2" :-)

The fun part is deciding when to test the condition.  File creation,
deletion, *modification*; PnP interrupts; ...
