+=head1 The Catalyst config system, what you need to know.
+
+I assume everyone has read wreis' excelent advent article about how to do
+B<really flexible> things with L<Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader>, right?
+(L<Catalyst Advent Calendar 2007-15|http://www.catalystframework.org/calendar/2009/XX>)
+
+This article is for anyone just starting out who looked at that and was confused.
+
+So I'm going to present a I<really simple> (i hope), guide to how config works,
+and a couple of simple patterns and techniques for successfully using it in your
+applications.

+=head2 Config loading

+=head2 A strategy
+
+Move user settable settings out into config file
+Leave them commented out so the app explodes??
+Expect generation of _local.conf for DB settings.
