It's not something I can honestly say I have additional time to devote to; I'll continue to ensure all code in trunk and in releases is submitted with near-100% test coverage (as per merge policy), however I don't have time to help out with an additional test framework. Obviously I'll provide whatever support I can to others who want to do that work, including yourself. Scott -- Have you ever, ever felt like this? Had strange things happen?
