I would like to raise this topic again as Jeff had no feedback until now
and there is no real progress regarding the submitted bugs:

17768   Test types update in tl.meego.com
17877   Test types update in MCTS 
18365   Test types update in Handset UX 
18366   Test types update in MNTS
18368   Test types update in Meego SDK 

To me, adding new test types in testlink (tl.meego.com) first without
modifying the existing ones seems to be a good approach.
This should avoid inconsistencies and thus testlink will remain
compatible with all the Meego test suites whatever the test types used.
Moreover new test types will be available for users when creating or
updating a test case in testlink.

New test types to be added are listed hereafter (7):
- Functional positive 
- Functional negative 
- Security
- Reliability 
- Performance 
- Maintainability 
- Portability 

Does this approach make sense?
Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated...

Thanks
Christophe
