Sorry about this guys.  A large part of this is my fault.  The time I =20=

could devote to this quickly evaporated as the summer wore on.  I =20
tried to get someone familiar with project to take over as mentor a =20
little over half way through, but everyone else was tied up too.  =20
Couple that with someone that got in over their head and, well, the =20
GSoC project just couldn't make it.

All that said, I'm shooting for a 1.0 of PHPT by the end of the year.  =20=

That will have complete running of the php-src tests, parallel test =20
running, and full support for Windows (thanks in large part to all of =20=

the testing of PHPT that Elizabeth Smith has done).

Michal - I would love to have some help on this.  As I alluded to =20
here, there is already a replacement for run-tests.php in the PHPT =20
project (phpt.info).  It's 0.1 release was a rewrite of PEAR_RunTest, =20=

so there are some discrepancies between what it can do currently and =20
what run-tests is capable of.  If you would like to help out, feel =20
free to ping me off-list or on phpt-dev for some guidance.
