Hmmm - so we are proposing doing this because we are rubbish at source control? :-) (pls note the smiley, I've been taken *too* seriously once already today) So, the idea of these tests is that they are "independent of the version of Qpid". That must mean they depend on APIs which do not change with Qpid version. Which (as far as I know) means they must be JMS tests? Is this correct so far? If they are jms tests then surely we should call them jmstests rather than qpidtests? Any JMS provider will do? I'm not trying to be difficult... but I think that we need to be very clear about what we're doing here... and at the moment I'm really not in favour of moving things "out" of qpid. Moving them to a different directory under qpid... fine... Maybe you can spin that out at a later date. Personally I'd much prefer to see this in qpid/jmstests I don't see the merging problems as being much worse than all the other merging issues we have with multiple branches. -- Rob -- Rob
