unloads multiple packages using the Monticello unload function. It also
removes the empty category, and updates any browsers that will get
upset if the category map changes.<br><br><span>2) Raised bug <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://bugs.impara.de/view.php?id=5718">http://bugs.impara.de/view.php?id=5718</a> with regard to browsers getting upset when categories are removed.</span><br><br>3) Have been discussing with Edgar the desirability of having tests in one package.<br>The
goal being easy load/unload of tests. I do not think that the one
package approach is flexible enough and so I am working on a viable
alternative which builds upon the 3.9 packaging divisions.<br><br>a)
So for step 1, easy unload of Tests, all Tests (even tests from
non-base packages, as long as the naming convention is used. The
following oxymoron: Installer install: 'UnloadTests', which simply
calls Installer unload: '*Tests-*'.<br><br>b) For easy reloading of tests three options come to mind.<br>Monticello configurations<br>Installer script<br>PackageUniverses, Tests (sub)universe!<br><br>I
think that the most elegant of these would be the PackageUniverses
option, but I suspect that the most pragmatic option will be the
Installer script option, so watch this space.<br><br>4) Installer #install: being joined by a synonym #do: <br>The above oxymoron can now be expressed slightly more logically as <br>Installer do: 'UnloadTests'<br><br><span>5) Started
