    Appropriate place for package config info

    Extending Umbraco

    I'm just extending the excellent Open ID package for umbraco and I need to add some configuration capabilities to it.  What is the appropriate location in which to store the config?  The Web.config?  A file in the umbraco/config directory?

    In my opinion there are three options:

    1. the web.config
    2. own config in config folder
    3. own config in the package folder

    I would prefer 2. or 3. but it depends on the security settings you need. Read/write access or so. If you could create a folder for the package you can propably be sure that you can write also a file to the folder. Also think about the users: if the user has to edit the file the user has to find it in an easy way => option 2.

    hth, Thomas
