My experience with supporting user facing software showed me that you want them typing as little as possible at the command-line. Expert users can handle setting extra options when necessary. I also don't like putting anything into the configuration files for this as I find them to be clunky for this type of operation. Since we tend to operate in a mode of publishing a bunch of runs over a short period of time and then have a long hiatus between, I think remembering to set a flag shouldn't be to onerous on us since we are the expert users. To be safe, it can be documented as part of the production procedure. Besides, if we do forget to track a run, we can always write a little script to pull the necessary information out of the DB and stick it into Mantis. "}}
