I'm trying to catch up on the flurry of test suite stuff that came out last 
week.  I have one overarching question, after looking at the telecon notes 
[0]:  what next?  Is there a particular assignment for the next telecon?

I'd like to suggest a modest task for each test author -- come up with 
names for your tests.  (See for example the three subsections of the 2.0 
test suite, as listed in the implementation report [1]).  This will also 
help to clarify the packaging, which is not always clear from the 
notes.  For example, I asked earlier about packaging on Don's fontmap 
tests, and the working session notes contain similar uncertainties.

Second task, longer term:  the results in the 2.0 implementation report [1] 
are nearly two years old.  Would it be useful for implementors to update 
their results and issue a new version of the 2.0 implementation 
report?  (Hmmm ... since the 2.0 test suite will be a subset of the 2.1 
test suite, and we will need a 2.1 implementation report, I guess the 
answer is "yes".)  Have any implementations improved?  (Note to Don -- we 
have no VizEx results at all for the dynamic10 section.)
