> It should also include some obvious non-config meta-stuff, ie every top level Markdown/plain text file save maybe README. The problem you're trying to solve with this is just related to the fact that README starts with R. In the past, I've been an advocate for breaking with tradition and naming your README "ABOUT" instead. > it would be nice if same-ecosystem tools were encouraged to collaborate on config specs/schemas so a great deal more stuff could be defined once, in one format, at one well-known path Or better: thinking long and hard about the question "What problem is this trying to solve?" and then considering whether another tool that dumps/reads a config file at a fixed location is the best way to deal with it in the first place.
