Re: ARIA test harness

Hi Tobie - thanks for your interest. I should have thought to reach out
to you to present this tool when you came on board, since it is a part
of the testing project that meets certain requirements on an earlier
time frame than would otherwise have been met. It also serves to
demonstrate some requirements in action.

To start, it would make sense for you and me to get on the phone and
walk through the tool, where I can talk about its features, motivations,
and relate to the particular requirements. Once we establish a starting
understanding we could begin the conversation about how this fits within
the larger testing project. I do expect this tool to be replaced by the
outcome of the centralized testing project eventually, and our
walk-through should help to set us on that path.

Let's start a scheduling thread off list, I should have time next week
sometime.
