Hi Garrett,

please refrain from making assumptions about what people do. Opening a
mail with an accusatory or attacking tone of this nature is
counter-productive, and therefore inappropriate for this working

Please keep your comments to demonstrable facts and a more positive

yours (Apple) who are vying to get their APIs approved. The idea takes
a back seat to the company. This is counterproductive and destructive

Working for Apple doesn't make your ideas any more valid. It doesn't
make you an authority to decide whether or not I am socially competent
and making such statements is a personal attack on my character.  If
you are trying to discourage personal attacks, you are not setting
much of an example.

You don't seem to like to have it pointed out when you're wrong.

would call this behavior socially competent behavior.

Hi, Garrett-

Please stop.  If you post any more messages to the list like your last
two, Mike and I will have to suspend your posting privileges, and
consult with the co-chairs (Chaals and Art) when or if you should be
allow to post again (such as in 2 weeks).

May I suggest, in all seriousness, that you step back, take a few
breaths, and reconsider how you want to treat people and to be treated.
 I hear your frustration, and if there's something that we can do to
make this a more pleasant and productive working environment for
everyone, yourself included, we will strive to do it.  But we all know
this isn't it.

I'd ask everyone to stop posting on this thread until one of the chairs
decides what to do.  Thanks.

Regards-
-Doug

Hi Carmelo,
I don't quite see how the structure of your format is meant to evolve -  
the tests are not very complex but there is still too much utility code  
that should be in a framework inside the scripts itself, and it all relies  
too much on global variables and global functions in ad-hoc  
underscore-namespaces like w3c_ and NIST_. Perhaps you have some  
documentation on the agreed format?


Also a bit odd that you won't get correct pass/fail output in UAs without  
advanced CSS support - generated content, even. That alone makes the test  
suite useless for comparing compliance to older browsers or your past  
versions.


Have you considered simply using the YUI-test framework? I think it is  
pretty well structured and clean. I admit I have not written any serious  
number of tests with it but I work on analysing those that come with YUI  
pretty often and it always strikes me as better than other frameworks I  
know - stuff I maintain or have written.
