I think that should always be the case. While I don't forsee needing to do it differently, I think it's safe to assume: if we ever need to break that for some reason, then it's a newer version of TAP. Taking that logic a step further, I vote YAGNI on the "complete syntax for meta-information" bit. If we need more syntax, we bump the version and continue on our merry way, right? Is anybody itching for more metadata right now? I figure we should keep including this link in every mail until everybody has read it so many times that they start complaining :-) http://perl-qa.yi.org/index.php/TAP_version --Eric -- "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler." --Albert Einstein --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------
