That would not help very much, as (1) we know what Jeff included as sample keystores are more or less cooked and good, but (2) nobody in your style of trial will come up with different keystore to exercise the API to make sure that will not paint us into a corner we cannot upgrade without major pain in the backward compatibility area. The "real-world success reports" you can generate would only for (1) but at this point we are not worried about that. We are more (much more) worried about (2). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
