Re: Sample items and configurations to test updates

Personally I was thinking the file library probably should be a separate structure from the test cases.  While configuration files may be package-specific, sample graphic and sound files may be usable by more than one application.

Copyright guidelines on what is and is not allowed in this library also would have to be created if the wiki doesn't have these already.   A quick glance suggests that many Image files in the Fedora wiki do not have Wikipedia-style licensing tags, so I don't know what documentation approach is desired.

Really needed!  The current test cases work well, but most of the
packages held for security testing and critical path testing do not have
test cases with necessary files.

Some developers/packagers do have test files, but it is hard to find
them.  Maybe one of the excellent Fedora or Red Hat gurus could come up
with a way to collect them, organize them and put them on a server
somewhere.  I know, maintenance would be difficult, but then maybe it
could be automated as a byproduct of packaging and updating the
packages.  Just a thought.
