Well, yes. That's what I have just had the chance to do. I am thinking about something to automate that. How do we get down-streamers to know what they have works. How other than personally testing could we insure it works downstream? I am thinking aloud here. I am not trying to task you with something. Just trying to voice a story I would like to see implemented.

There's still something nebulous in that story. So I'll leave it on a back burner for a while.

Fair enough. You've fielded enough of my questions. Thanx.
