Re: AccName question

Hey Bryan.

If by prototype you mean the tool you created for the purpose of testing
and validating test cases, I have no objection whatsoever. It's your
tool, and a most awesome tool at that!

If you mean anything else, especially if it potentially involves making
changes to any of our specs or note-track documents, then we should file
an issue against those documents.

Thanks!
