Configuration Utilities. NOTE: This module is deprecated and will be removed at the end of the v2.x versions of the utilities. Preferred config system after that is either to use true type-safe config with `net.morimekta.providence:providence-config` or to use a simple JSON or YAML library or java properties files. The semi-typesafe layered config did not really solve the problems I had hoped it would, and in essence this was just a helper for merging maps and getting pre-cast values out of it.

There is a newer version: 2.7.1
