From: Stefano Lattarini
Subject: [FYI] {parallel-tests-maint} docs: parallel-tests is not experimental anymore
Date: Wed, 11 May 2011 16:07:46 +0200
User-agent: KMail/1.13.3 (Linux/2.6.30-2-686; KDE/4.4.4; i686; ; )

The parallel-tests driver has now been used quite extensively
by a fair number of real-world applications (e.g., GNU coreutils,
GNU libtool, GNU grep, and various packages using Gnulib), and
thus exposed to adequate on-field testing.  So there's no point
in declaring it experimental anymore (which would risk to make
potential users shy away from it).

* doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests using parallel-tests): Do not
declare the parallel-tests driver as "experimental" anymore.
