What value does this have over simply having a configuration file. In your load testing application you could have easily checked for the settings in a config object. I think that the discover-ability of configuration can be handled with example configs and documentation. -- David blog: http://www.traceback.org twitter: http://twitter.com/dstanek -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
