Re: [abbot-users] suites of scripts

[Timothy W. <tw...@us...>]

The scope of a component reference definition is the script in which  
it is defined, so when you split your scripts, they each need to  
define whatever component references they use.

This was an early design decision based on a few ideas.

* scripts should be standalone, i.e. not depend on some external data  
in order to be properly configured
* scripts should be responsible for describing the component  
references they need, reducing the need to manage a large list of  
component references that would have a long list of difficult-to- 
track dependencies
