Well some are my own but > really not all of them. it's because it's a marvelous idea, it's normative, and you can assume that the tool will evolve with the package it allows to configure. it's cool for a packager. that's why we cannot really rewrite wwwconfig-common, but replace it with a new package, with new things in it. wrt to the interpreter, I agree, we have not to depend on too much things. Shell scripts are fine, be we can use perl too (it's «standard») for example. But I like the sh thing, that with a bit of dialog, I think all will be just fine. -- Pierre Habouzit
