I'll review and commit if you answer the following question :
what changed? :) I'm nervous if we have things excluded that

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.
