Keep configurations current

Ensure all configuration elements (dependencies, build settings, preprocessor flags) are up-to-date, documented, and consistent with project standards. This practice prevents issues arising from outdated references and improves maintainability for team members.

Key practices include:

1. Document special configuration elements in README files or documentation:

   // In NecAurora.md:
   // .vc/.vcpp file extensions are used to differentiate VE device files 
   // from c/cpp in cmake. Cmake will compile them using nec.
   

2. Update preprocessor definitions when dependencies change names or versions:

   -#ifdef HAVE_MKLDNN
   +#ifdef HAVE_ONEDNN
   // Updated to reflect new dependency name
   

3. Maintain consistent tool versions across related projects (e.g., same Maven version for all modules)

4. Verify third-party dependencies comply with organizational policies before inclusion, especially for licensing requirements

Regularly audit configuration files to ensure they remain aligned with current technologies, dependency versions, and organizational standards.
