Hi Gilbert,

Yeah, it's big. I created a registry for LDM configuration parameters so that 
they could be accessed programmatically as well as by scripts and via the 
command-line. The version you saw used the Berkeley-DB database for the 
registry (which is a larger package than the LDM). I've since changed the 
implementation to use a simple XML file and the "libxml2" package, so it's now 
much smaller (but not yet available).

I've removed the 6.9.0.2 beta version you saw. Don't use it.

I'll release 6.9.0 next week.
