In my opinion lowering the defaults is definitely a good idea. In an 
embedded environment there is no specific need for an RTOS to supply 
high and memory consuming theoretical default limits. As the 
application is tailored to the system the RTOS should also be tailored 
to the application.

The only critical thing is, IMHO, that those minimum defaults should be 
well documented. Guides like "Getting Started" and/or the "C User 
Guide" should take great care to explain the necessety of having to 
replace the defaults with your own values for all but the most trivial 
things.

Oh, BTW, next BETA ??? So I guess it will still take some time before 
we arrive at a new full official release ?
