It was probably about a year and a half/two years back, before you did |
20 |
the euseradd, etc stuff. libconf is a project Dams did that makes |
21 |
changes to config files transparent to the format being used, and I then |
22 |
he have a few interfaces to it (php, perl, whatever). Its just that |
23 |
then we can do fairly generic config parsing stuff (and might be usefull |
24 |
in the installer project as well). Don't know if Dams want to give a |
25 |
status update/overview ... |
