I'll review and commit if you answer the following question :

what changed? :)  I'm nervous if we have things excluded that
suddenly magically start to work again.


The tests were always excluded; they were donated to Harmony with exclude keywords. When I revised exclude lists in November, I saw that they failed
so I kept them excluded. A couple of weeks ago I returned back to the
excluded tests to investigate/file JIRAs and it appeared that three of them stably pass. That's the story. Ufortunately I don't know when they started passing and don't remember how they failed to guess what made them pass :(

Alas.

I wonder if we should start tracking all this stuff somehow. Our exclude lists are good because we have records now, but a coherent picture is hard for me to grasp. I might be nice to log things like this in one place.

Maybe then we could bracket when the fairies come and fix things and stuff just starts working, and be able to figure out what changed...

Ok, I guess we put them in and see what happens.
