 Replying to [comment:7 warner]:

 > (note that part of the reason for having discrete files for things like
 log-gatherers was to make it easy to set up or modify a whole bunch of
 Allmydata servers with a batch of {{{scp}}} commands: just stuff the
 {{{log-gatherer.furl}}} file into all of them and then bounce them all. To
 do that with {{{tahoe.cfg}}} requires editing files, so needs more complex
 tooling. But I don't think this is an important feature these days, and I
 prefer the simplicity of a single config file).

 I see. Yes, I think we can push this complexity off because nowadays
 sysadmins and their tools like puppet are getting good at editing config
 files in place.
