Enterprise Library 3.0 – Feedback from the trenches

One of the engineers that works on the same team I work on blogged about his trials and tribulations of using Enterprise Library 3.0 with Environmental Overrides.  Last week I checked in Enterprise Library 3.0 into team foundation server and he got assigned the task of re-configuring all of our config files to use the new feature of environmental overrides.  Currently we have test, beta and prod environments for our main application so this was something we thought we could immediately benefit from.

He got it posted this morning, you can read it here.  Anyone else agree with Morlock or have a different opinion?
