How does this fit into the genobj philosophy ? On the first contact with kbsys 
I was very impressed of the genobj and friends idea, because it is  very 
simple and straight forward. 
Installation of the related object is one part of this (using instdir class 
member and may be others) so I thought installation of other object would go 
the same way. I think that this would reduce the learning curve. 

Additional I thought that data or header for a specific object could be 
defined in the objects context to make clear that they belongs to this 
object. (self explaining) : 
 
obj.instdata= 
obj.instlocal = 
obj.instconf = 

Any comments ? 
BTW: Is anywhere a complete specification/howto as holger mentioed available ?
