Here is a link to draft section on the user configuration block of the YP Development Environment work.  Check this out and provide feedback for appropriate level of detail, usefulness, missing info, ect.  This draft section, once we settle on it, will set the tone and level for the remaining detailed sections that make up the general environment diagram.

Thanks, 
Scott
