One of the nice things in WSS is that you can create your own site definitions through XML. MOSS adds a whole bunch of nice features that you can use while creating your site definitions.
One feature that is used very often is the Publishing Feature. One of the things this feature does is creating a document library for storing all kinds of documents.
But did you know that there are a lot of properties (not all well documented by MS) that you can use to configure the publishing feature to your needs? I used Red Gate’s reflector tool to come up with a list of all possible properties that you can use to configure the feature to your needs.
