RE: Instructions and team assignments for getting to Last Call

Tim, 

You asked whether there's a template for tests. I think the short answer
is no-- the idea is to include the test procedures in the "Tests"
section of the Techniques template.

But maybe there could be a "test template" in that section, to provide
the kind of guidance and consistency you're suggesting.

Could you draft something and send it to the list (or point us to an
existing template that you feel we could usefully adapt)?

Thanks!
John

Will there be any consideration of a template for tests, in addition to
the 
Techniques
template mentioned in the excerpted message following?   Is a test
template 
appropriate or necessary?
I think that possibly including such a test template, or at least some 
additional specific instructions for test creators,
might serve to enhance the consistency of test format across the various

SCs, as well as simply
the process of test description and maintenance.  Since tests are to 
evaluate the implementation of
related techniques (which have a template), perhaps tests should also
have 
a template?

Just a thought..

Thanks and happy new year!
