Hi Nguyen,
Good to hear from you?  How is ARC doing?  I was looking to download a copy t=
he other day but couldn't find it online anymore.=20

But yes, we can make those paths configurable just like the models.=20
If you can, open a Jira to track this? (Anyone should be able to create a ne=
w Jira account)
