Yea. I'm thinking at this point I'm fine with dropping the attempt to keep kselftest and my external timekeeping tests in sync. Though something that might be nice however is having some place that keeps tarball releases of kselftest around? As it would make pulling tests onto a target machine a bit easier. Does that already exist? thanks -john
