I customize a WSS site definitions by tweaking one of the built in definitions. When examining the sts definition, I see it has a configuration ‘NewWeb’ with ID -1, and ‘Blank’ with ID 1. In the sps definition these are defined like this:

<Configuration ID='-1' Name='NewWeb'/> <Configuration ID='1' Name='Blank'>   <ExecuteUrl Url='_layouts/[%=Web.Language%]/settings.aspx' /> </Configuration>

Does anyone know what significance these have? Should I include them in my custom definition, or may I safely omit them?

  1. NewWeb is web that has no template associated with it. Essentially, simply a provisioned URL.

    BlankWeb is a template that specifies no lists or libraries
