The tests will ultimately have to be based around objectives. So, as you collect these items let's try to think how they would fit into objective categories (no- that's not academic-speak). For example: inetd.conf fstab rc.conf might all be categorized as activities under a 'Configuration' objective, whereas tar pax cpio dump might all be categorized under 'Data Management'. Some grouping of objectives in this way will give us a reference model we can eventually publish. I think the most valuable efforts at this stage will involve clearly identifying objectives, and then balancing the objectives across certification levels. I've had a thought that the handbooks for the various projects might be of use here since they already categorize many such topics.
