That can tide us over until the official version comes out, at which point, we can delete the w3c-experimental directory and just add a w3c directory. It would be nice if we could start fixing these things before they become part of the official test suite as a way of evaluating whether there are issues with the spec and/or test suite. Also, it seems to me like to does make sense to add an update-experimental-w3c-xhr-tests script or something until there is an official version. Ojan
