"""The Job Configuration

The job configuration, holding configuration variable supplied to the job.

The config should be viewed as a hierachical namespace.  The elements
of the hierachy are separated by periods (.) and where multiple words
are required at a level they should be separated by underscores (_).
Please no StudlyCaps.

For example:
        boot.default_args
