Hi Thomas and others,

I read the announcement with interest, but have not looked at AMK's module
yet due to lack of time.

Recently I received a mail from Greg Wilson (of SoftwareCarpentry fame)
because he is interested in helping me to integrate a pre-existing code
coverage library called 'PyCov' into PyUnit. I am in favour of such an
integration, but again have not yet had time to investigate further. Perhaps
Quixote's bundled coverage module is the same one?

I would welcome any help or suggestions for such work.

Best wishes to all,

-Steve
