Subject: [ANNOUNCE] The Linux Test Project has been Released for DECEMBER
	2009

Hi,

The Linux Test Project test suite has been released for the month of
DECEMBER 2009. Please see ltp/INSTALL file carefully, as, there has
been multiple changes for building/installing the test suite after the
recent changes in Makefile infrastructure.

The latest version of the test-suite contains 3000+ tests for the Linux
OS and can be found at:
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/,
Latest happenings in LTP can also be found at:
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wiki/,
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wikiArchives.php, and,
IRC: irc.freenode.org #ltp.

========================
DECEMBER 2009 Highlights:
======================== 
      * Cleanup and stabilization of new build system for various
        distros, archs and make versions,

Note(s) from the Maintainer:
==============================
Garrett & Mike still continued with their effort to stabilize the new
build system. Introspecting ourselves at the end of the year, i find LTP
as a community project is in strong footing. Following are the various
interesting statistics about LTP during this year 2009:

     1. Over 30 Institutions contributed throughout the year, 
     2. No. of Patches contributed to LTP increased by 232% compared to
        last year, 
     3. 93% more source files were affected due to patching, making
        those tests better, 
     4. There is more than 200% increase in the no. of new testcases
        contributed to LTP, 
     5. The source code size increased almost 12% over the last year,

This is indeed a great achievement for LTP. And with tremendous hope, i
would believe that LTP would scale more heights in this year and future,
and would remain the project for the community; contributed by the
community.

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))

Happy testing, 
Regards-- 
Subrata,
