I'm not sure what you mean exactly here, but the tests on GH will get mirrored to w3c-test.org as they did previously so everything should work just the same (except that we now get a version control system that's actually usable, and a good submission process). > 2.

Do we get similar setup with github. Yes, that is being set up. > 3. Any reason why all (html, webapps, webappsec) end up in same repo ? To make things simpler for contributors, resource management, documentation, etc. and to avoid the per-WG split that makes no sense outside of the organisation. > Any plans to provide sub-module support?

No, they will be made read-only and won't be synced (at least that's the case with the HTML test suite). They essentially become historical and obsolete. > Any plans to freeze it at > some point.

Whoever is transitioning a test suite should make it clear that people should stop committing to hg whenever they start transitioning. For the HTML TS, that's already the case. -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/ - @robinberjon
