Thanks for the input on this.  If someone wants to start out on the wiki
some examples of the configurations they would like to see and what
modules they would include, that would give us a head start.  Also, if
we take this approach, we can do a bit to have different custom
configuration file sets for each of these.  Another thing roughly along
the same lines I would like to figure out is how we will handle changes
in the sample configuration files, in situations where you are upgrading
a previous installation.  If we ship packages with sample configurations
that make use of the configuration file includes, it may be a bit
easier, but we are still left with issues for example if a new option is
added to the sofia.conf configuration file, we need some methods to
notify the user upon upgrade what those changes are, so that they can
manually make any necessary changes.  For example, in the current
sofia.conf.xml file we have as a sample in tree, we have no mention
whatsoever of the ext-sip-ip parameter.  This will need to be added.  On
an upgrade, if someone has a modified version of this file in their
installed configuration files, how do we go about either making those
modifications automatically, or just properly notifying of the changes?
