I'll make sure we don't! Those parameters were only removed from the 
example config file. (Perhaps it would be better if they were still in 
the example?) But in any case, we do need to write a guide to the config 
file (and probably implement some error checking on user values).

FYI most values in the system dictionary can be overridden by setting 
the dictionary word value in the kforge.conf. You can see the list of 
all dictionary words by looking in:

kforge/dictionarwords.py
dm/dictionarywords.py

Let us know if you have any other thoughts, questions or queries!

Best wishes,
John.
