I sort of blindly copied everything from DB. These tests usually go into one common test directory. So where should they do for PHPUnit tests? 1) $php_dir/unittests/ 2) or MDB/unittests In case we want a single 'unittests' dir I guess we should define a naming scheme as well has a method to define how conf files should be handled etc. But all in all 2) probably makes the most sense? > I'm too busy at work to contribute to PHP and PEAR right now, some time > next week things should start cooling down and I can catch up my mail > again. Hmm, does anyone else have the necessary permissions to handle this? I would really like to make a new release this weekend. But if all else fails I can of course wait. Regards, Lukas
