Note(s) from the Maintainer:

We saw lot of cleanups in this month with few new tests being added. I
would complete my promise about the remaining OLS 2008 fallout
discussions for LTP, soon. We will also discuss about the recently
concluded CRACKERJACK Developers Summit & the Linux Plumbers conference,
and what they mean for LTP´s future.


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.

We would encourage the community to post results to
ltp-results@...ts.sf.net,
patches, new tests, bugs or comments/questions to ltp-list@...ts.sf.net,
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=3382&atid=103382
(for New Bug(s)),
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=3382&atid=303382
(for New Patch(s)),
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=3382&atid=353382
(for New Feature Request(s))

Please also see the Change Log Attached (SEPTEMBER 2008) for detailed
changes.

Happy testing,

Subrata,
