As we discuss again about the ETP,it appears testing "as much as possible"
isn't out priority, so let's forget about it for now, and let's also forget
validated, since it does not add values, related to what it costs to
maintain it.
I'll setup a list of files aimed to be included on the next release, based
on what populate validated, but for unvalidated. You guys will add files if
you think it should, and if you think other people do agree (for example, we
won't add now.jal, because it's not a lib :)).

In the meanwhile, I'll modify the release script to base its work on this
file, and produces tarballs and zip.

Once done, and once we agree on the content... well, we'll release !


PS: about preferred boards or "official" boards. There can be several board
for a given PIC. for instance, Joep has his own board for 16f88, and I have
mine (and will add it, probably). Now, we can generate samples from board
and test files. So, which board to use ? The one being marked as
"preferred". How do we choose ? Well, we'll discuss ! As of now, every
Joep's boards are the "preferred" ones, because he deserves it :)

PPS: I'll try to do this by the end the WE.

PPPS: about conditional compile... I understand what we've got now (not
entering a new block when if <constant> is not the original behavior is a
kind of bug because it's not the original behavior. Some (...) would want to
switch back to the very original behavior, so we'd loose conditional compile
as it is today, maybe in favor of a new keywords, or something like that. My
opinion about this is also that, yes a "cif" or the like keyword will
probably be used by only lib writers (us), but does this justify that we
feel pain using it ? More, everyone should be able to contribute to jallib
by sharing libs. this is not a "advanced users" vs. dummies. Contributing
should be as easy as possible, and if being a "if"/conditional guru is
mandatory, it won't help...
