There's nothing in conf.js that a sever admin would need to
configure,
at least not now. It's a bunch of constants for setting
sizes of pieces
of the UI in one place.
The only thing that someone might actually want to change
would be
TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY, if they wanted to implement a custom
skin. (I do
seem to remember there was someone who tweaked the
HOUR_UNIT_HEIGHT to
get more hours into the scrolling area for timed events, but
the current
design of the UI doesn't actually support changing that.)
Calling it 'conf' in the first place was kind of misnomer --
except that
it's something that lets the *developer* easily configure
the size and
placement of UI elements in the layout.
That's not to say we will never need admin-configurable
options, just
that the things in the current conf.js are not those types
of options.
Thinking about it now, the only change I might make, aside
from trying
to figure out some external way to config the template
directory, would
be eventually to move all those props into the
cosmo.app.pim.layout
namespace. (And of course do a bit of pruning to remove
entries like
LOGO_GRAPHIC that are no longer used.
