I used to keep your old versions around
but then my pass/fail counts were polluted with repeats. I have left a couple of them in there, specifically the MMC3 test suites that you recently updated because I passed the scanline timing test in the old suite but not the new. I just haven't got back to MMC3 yet to figure out what's going on there.
git is a *great* and *easy* VCS. I use SVN/ClearCase professionally but now have joined a few others at work that use git instead.

@NESICIDE: I tried in both Internet Explorer and Firefox. WinRAR says it's a corrupted file (around 12 megs).

WinZIP worked for me...do you have that?
Or, you can install git and get the repo...

Honestly before too long tests will be managed inside of the IDE.. you'll see what I mean in a few weeks hopefully

Zepper's is much better... It makes fun of the people who are bashing an OS, like you just did, not the competing OS itself.
I say we stop the OS war now. Yeah, Linux is great and all, but not everyone has the time and the competence necessary to configure it, so as long as Windows allows you to point-and-click through tasks that in Linux require a shitload of complex written commands, it will have a large user base.

Last post before getting back OT.. I have all 3 OSs on my machine (yes, OSx86 :p). I've recommend and installed Windows for more people than Linux -- and in both situations they've been happy so far. I just love trolling sometimes :p

If you failed to find something, it's likely that we failed to make it findable. Where on the wiki did you expect to find a link to this page?

How well does it perform in a mixed Linux/Windows environment? I was thinking of using Mercurial; is git noticeably
better?
