– the ability to make a list of fields that are available by product.
An installation will have the ability to have several field schemes, each of
which can be used by multiple products allowing product owners to determine the
set of fields that make the most sense for that product. To facilitate
that, we’re looking into how we extend the templating system so that it
knows where to find the appropriate template for the given product.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

community (notwithstanding what others may already be doing), what is most
