RE: [Firebird-test] Some important news/reading regarding test su ites

[Leyne, S. <sl...@at...>]

Mark,

Not that I want to dull your enthusiasm, but can I suggest that we wait
and see the test suites to be released by Dale and crew (or should that
be Rob Schieck and crew...)

Or are you suggesting that the current test model is a load of horse
s**t and deserves the boot?

I'd personally like to see what's will be available before getting hot
and heavy about writing new stuff.  

I expect there will be community acceptance issues if we arbitrarily
create a new test suite without being able to justify the change. The
existing test suite (even if poorly implemented) will be the "gold
standard" for a while.  It would take some time before the new suite
could garner any credibility.

(At some point I'd like someone to explain how a "certification" test
can take over a month to run? -- As alluded to in other
postings/lists/messages)

Hi Guys (and Girl)

I think I will finally be able to get my linux boxes back on the
internet, either by the end of this week or early next week.  THEN I can
resume doing the NIST test suite thing.

Sorry about the delay,

Cheers

Mark
