Just FYI: I believe Bill is on vacation still (I want to say he's due

Good Catch! I made a little blurb in the wiki  (
http://www.open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=editing_config_files )
about this, but I'm not sure what the suggested max is (of course, it
will depend on how heavily Evergreen will be used and some other
factors).

I'm sure Bill will understand this better than I (as I am far from
even proficient in XML), and will add a blurb in the openils.xml
config in CVS and/or on the wiki (
http://www.open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=openils.xml ).

I'm sure somebody will add a comment to the config file sample in the
CVS tree (somebody who has the ability anyway ;))

Added (http://www.open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=perl_modules).
