Now the next question is: are you prepared to help with the project of building an open source test suite? What would you find a reasonable thing your end point can provide so that test suites could hook onto it, and build up a report? I am speaking about an end-point such as http://id.myopenlink.net/ods/webid_demo.html but others could be ok. What can it produce that would be easy for a test suite to consume?
