I didn't find any answer when I asked the last time, so I'm asking again:
What is the meaning of the absolute number of 'regressions' ?
Tells us how many regressions there are?
Did this number really go up from the last report to the current one ?
I don't know.
At least some 'new' ones stem from the inclusion of the 'gcc-4.1.1_sunos_i86pc' test run in this report, which wasn't present in the last.
Hmm.
What determines the test runs that make it into a report ? Is this sunos platform really a primary platform for this release ? Why wasn't it tested before ?
How are we ever going to get the number of unexpected failures down to zero ? I honestly don't believe it will ever happen, if we continue like that. :-(
Well, things look really bad for python because I've been working on the BBv2 configuration support for it. I think that was fixed yesterday and I hope the next report will look a lot better. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
