Change "configuration" to "module"
----------------------------------

         Key: GERONIMO-1987
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1987
     Project: Geronimo
        Type: Improvement
    Security: public (Regular issues) 
    Versions: 1.1    
    Reporter: Dain Sundstrom
 Assigned to: Dain Sundstrom 
     Fix For: 1.2


It seems like "configuration" can be confusing, as it more traditionally refers to a larger scope like an entire installation.  For example, if you say you have two different WebLogic configurations or two different Apache (HTTP) configurations, you're saying either you have two installations, or you have two totally separate product configurations available for the same product installation.  You're not saying you have an app and a database pool within one runtime, but that's what "two different configurations" presently would mean in relation to Geronimo.

It seems like it would be clearer to say that a Geronimo installation loads many modules, and each module includes many components (GBeans).
