Re: Eggplant (formerly Testplant) Forks

[Adam Fox]

Hi Fred -

I concur that it would have been better to do this MUCH sooner and apologize 
for the inconvenience.  Please know that we are committed to not getting that 
out-of-sync again, it has been costly for us as well.

I understand that it will cost you a lot of time to look through the changes, 
and we sincerely appreciate it.  Ideally we would create feature-based merge 
requests (and intend on doing that going forward), but I suspect that you may 
be interested in going through the changes faster than we will have the time to 
make clean merge requests for existing commits.  Please let us know if there's 
anything we can do to help you get that done faster.

Finally, I forgot to mention before that in an effort to improve our unit 
testing, we added some basic XCTest support to our code that probably makes 
more sense in the GNUstep code somewhere, but I'm not sure where.  Please let 
me know if you would like me to commit that code somewhere as well.

Thank you!!

  ~ Adam Fox
