Every developer on this list builds PHP at least daily and also runs "make test" at least every few days so they are well aware of the status of the tests. I think you will find that there aren't as many developers here as you think and only the developers are actually going to fix stuff. An alert on a brand new test failure along with the commit that caused it, that would be useful and that is what the Jenkins work will eventually bring us. A list of the same xfails that all of us are painfully aware of isn't useful. -Rasmus
