ATM almost every project has a large repository of test-files. Jmol comes with > 100MB of test-files an CDK has around 70MB of test files. Your own repository comes with about 45MB of data. Locally I have around 70MB of files, only for just a few MIME types (not all), and I need more. So what about a united data repository for test-files (maybe as own "module" of blue-obelisk)? Such a central repository would also allow a strict structuring of the data (valid/invalid formats, testing of files with a wrong extension, ...). The test-implementations itself (C/C++/XML/XSLT/Java/... code), should then be part of the related projects (should be simple, to write the necessary code for ant/make to download the SVN tree of test files). What is your opinion? subject adjusted Regards, Daniel _______________________________________________ Blue-obelisk mailing list Blue-obelisk@hardly.cubic.uni-koeln.de http://hardly.cubic.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/blue-obelisk
