Re: Updated Editor's Draft of Test Document

Well, in that case, I will probably propose approving all the tests that 
  Jena passes (well passes tomorrow rather than today!)

It's not ideal, but if other implementations differ during LC we can 
rescind/modify tests.

A lot of the tests that we won't have two passes for have been added to 
address LC issues against the spec. We avoided too much change in the 
spec by agreeing to add clarifying tests. Unfortunately these were 
precisely where the implementations got it wrong, so our normal rule 
(two implementations) doesn't work.
