Hi all,

I'm about 3/4 done with the new config system in pcb-rnd. I decided to 
write the documentation and advertise the link to potentially get some 
constructive feedback.

The introduction is at http://repo.hu/projects/pcb-rnd/conf/

The user documentation is at 
http://repo.hu/projects/pcb-rnd/conf/index_user.html

The documentation is not finished yet, most notably the programmer's 
part is still missing (it's a known bug). Later on I plan a second RFC go 
excusively on the "project file" topic, once I have the doc text for that. 
Thus, in this thread I'd preferrably skip the discussion about whether 
project files are evil or not.

I am especially interested in use cases the above system can not cover.

TIA,

Igor2
