Can't remember if we posted about this here, but we are splitting
Validate into smaller packages and as you see most of those things have
unit testing but some are lacking and some need just extra love (read as
more data to throw at it)
The splitting is all done and I even wrote some unit tests so we're in
very good shape but there is one or two bugs still left and both I and
Pierre and Stefan are very busy at the moment so it has to wait unless
someone else (*hint*Toresten*hint*) steps in and takes care of those
things.
The multiple function would be one thing that might need some attention
after the split up.
Anyway knock ya self out and see what you can do, just file bug
reports/feature reports if you do anything with links to unified diffs
and etc. :-)
You can post all questions here also if there are any additional things
you need to know! :)
