There have been some pretty big changes in certain areas between 0.8.1 and
CVS, though. Perhaps the people who actually use Webware for real-world
stuff (unlike me) just track CVS, but I've been pleasantly surprised by some
of the enhancements. Some things still annoy me, though - contexts seem to
override packages of the same name - eg. set up a context called mypackage
and then attempt to import the genuine mypackage within the context's code.

Not strictly related to test suites, but I've been working on a simple
meta-framework which covers Webware and some of the other Web frameworks.
Hopefully, I'll release something for the Web-SIG to criticise later in the
week, if only to reinvigorate the stalled discussions on common APIs which
didn't seem to get any further than a ridiculously simple single function
signature and lots of talk about threading models.
