> testing procedures.
> New versions of the Derby network server should work with old versions of the 
> network client.  New versions of the Derby network client should work with 
> old versions of the server.  Currently that means that the 10.1 client should 
> be tested on the trunk.     The 10.2 client definitely needs to be tested 
> with the 10.1  server before release, but it would be good to start testing 
> snapshots of 10.2 client on the 10.1 branch earlier.
>    
> Note:
> Bug fixes may mean that the canons differ for different versions.
> The test harness I think is set up to allow different masters for different 
> versions.  It at least has that functionality for the DerbyNet framework
>  and it could  be expanded to cover DerbyNetClient.  The way it works is that
> the harness checks for a masters in the following order:
> functionTests/master/<framework>/ver<version>  
> functionTests/master/<framework>/
> functionTests/master/
