Sorry if this is a duplicate.  I sent it from another account on May 28th, but 
never saw it show up on the list.

At next month's Michigan eXtreme Programming Enthusiasts meeting I and another 
XPer will be demonstrating the act of legacy testing and refactoring.  To do 
this, we have decided to make Squeak our target platform.  Therefore, I am 
putting out a call for suggestions on what needs tested and refactored in 
Squeak.  It can be in the basic image or in add-on packages.

Some background on the exercise might help you help me in finding what needs 
tested.  So here goes...

 (+) we have about 1 (one) hour in which to do this exercise (which probably 
equates to 30 - 40 minutes of coding)

 (+) the pair of programmers will be two veteran XPers and testers, one of 
which is a long time veteran of Smalltalk (my partner) and one of which is 
fairly new to Smalltalk (myself)

 (+) we would like to address one or more of the following:
     (+) testing the untouchable (code that cannot be changed)
     (+) testing the touchable (code that can be changed)
     (+) testing the unexpected
     (+) testing the expected
     (+) etcetera, etcetera, etcetera

If we get far enough we will be more than happy to post a changeset of the 
tests/refactorings we make.

Thanks in advance for your generosity and aid.
