Note(s) from the Maintainer:
==============================
Two things were in the limelight this time. Stephen´s patches fixing all the anomalies in the SELINUX test suit. And the other being Manas´s effort to port huge no. of tests from Crackerjack to LTP. I am hoping that he is going to complete that soon.

Our web site also contains other information such as:
- A Linux test tools matrix
- Technical papers
- How To's on Linux testing
- Code coverage analysis tool.
