In this configuration file all host-server-depending values must be placed. This file must be altered by the administrator, not by a user. For instance, now the the default service "http://lux17.mpi.nl/ds/webannotator/" is hard-coded in the front-end code and can be adjusted only in the code, which is not ok since the host-service address can be changed (e.g. we are going to move to another production server soon). By placing this value in the configuration file (which is read by the front-end source code), we make it convenient to adjust by the plug-in admin. He must be instructed though, which parameter (with which name) he needs to adjust and in which case.

The backend was never hadcoded in the client, but its hard to get to the settings of wired marker. I added a button to the settings window. The server settings are located in a separeted tab. skarmdump 2014-11-01 10 44 57
