Yes, it's still valid.

I tend to be mainly using one project at a time, so just edit .pwclientrc when  
switching. I haven't had to do this often, so it hasn't been too much trouble 
(yet).

In the long term, I'd like to use [project] sections in pwclientrc:

  [base]
  # general parameters

  [myproject]
  url: http://some-server/xmlrpc
  project: myproject

  [patchwork]
  url: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/xmlrpc
  project: patchwork
  username: me
  password mypassword

  [cbe-oss-dev]
  url: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/xmlrpc
  project: cbe-oss-dev

The configuration section to use could be selected with the -p flag to 
pwclient, or by using argv[0] and invoking it as pwclient-cbe-oss-dev or 
pwclient-patchwork.

Cheers,


Jeremy
