The ASF front page says (...) "The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus based development process, " (...) That's not just some boilerplate. Consensus is a useful thing. "How should we organize our tests?" has now been the subject of debate for *months* around here, and every now and then much of the same discussion is rehashed. I think it would be more productive to look for things to agree on (such as, "we don't know, but we can find out", or "we have different ideas on that, but there's room for both", or "this way of doing things is not the best one but the stuff is still useful so let's thank the guy for his work anyway") than to keep delving deeper and deeper into these kinds of disagreements. Of course, the ASF front page doesn't say that "apache projects are characterized by a *productive* development process". Its just my feeling that for a system as big as harmony we need to be *very* productive. Think about it. Is your time better spent convincing lots of other people to do their testing differently, or is it better spent writing better tests? Anyhoo. *I* am going to stop participating in this discussion :-) ciao! LSD
