Re: Getting started on the Documentation Practices task force

I'd like to see an approval system that doesn't rely on physically 
relocating the test files, since in the i18n case the test files are 
produced by a call to a PHP file, and so cannot be moved into different 
directories. (Creating the tests in a PHP file makes life *much* easier 
for us when creating and modifying tests and test metadata.)
