APA> I have noted Stephen's sceptisism, but what's the value of APA> running the tests without reporting their result? The results _are_ reported. Tests failed. Somebody ran the test by hand over a year ago I'd guess, we analyzed it, discussed possible solutions.

I'll stay out of it, to not bias the results. :-) -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
