The files roundup/configuration.py and doc/customizing.txt list and describe some options. Right now they can get out of sync as has happened with the messages_to_author description between rev4547:d9d7319afffa and rev4975:2fce201a2b47 Goal: Do not have duplication. Solution idea: generated the customizing documentation from the configuration.py file. Other idea: Remove it from customizing and provide a different ways to see the list and description of the options.
