    Great! I integrated it to our project at work, it works fine.

    Well, there are bugs in cppunittest/TestCallerTest (as well as a few
memory leaks I did not spot last time), is does not check correctly the
expected exception stuff. Should that go in 1.6.1 or 1.8.0 (with the
exception enhancement I proposed in another mail)?

    What is your definition of often ? once a month, biweekly, weekly ? As
time go, we should strengthen our test suite. Whenever a bug is found, we
should try to write a test for it. I already did it for the TestCaller
thingy.
