Hi Jonathan!

I think the "perceived lack of demand" was just that, perceived. Of
course, I can only speak for myself, but I guess that many of us
consider the tests as part of the code, that's why no one showed
explicit interest before. As for the lack of resources, I guess that
this have to solved inside Sun, but of course, if there is anything we
can do, just shot :)
