I am not sure who coined the term, but it has to do with how you would QA
dogfood. At some point, you have to find a hungry dog and get his reaction.
So AbiWord will soon have a --to option available. A good way to test it
would be by finding someone hungry to do some file conversions. If it
tastes good, let's can it.
