RE: Telcon today!

And many thanks to Khaled for checking on the status of the remaining tests and reporting the issues. Seems like it should be an easy fix.

Cheers,
Vlad

P.S. <rant> Note to myself - do not ever trust the iPhone Mail app to do the right thing when responding to email threads. I was _pretty_ sure I was responding to the previous email from Chris regarding tabledata-glyf-bbox-003 in the same thread, but the app decided it knows better what it was about and sent the response to the latest email in the thread. </rant> Sorry for the confusion.

I think running this test on UA platforms is by itself an error.

The tests themselves (and the normative requirements we test here) seem to be pretty simple and straightforward, I wonder if this is just a case of bad data.
