Dear fellow MonetDB developers, Dear MonetDB users,

preparing for the upcming Nov2009 release we spent quite some time and efford in cleaning-up the "Stable" TestWeb ( cf., http://monetdb.cwi.nl/Development/TestWeb/Stable/ ) and fixing as many open bugs as possible. Big thansk go to all of you that were actively involved!

To further assess the status of (failing) tests and in particular open bug reports ( cf., https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?words=tracker_browse&sort=priority&... )

I ask all of you to

1) check the open bugs submitted by you, https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?words=tracker_browse&sort=submitted_by&... a) whether there is a test in CVS for this bug or not; b) whether the problem still occurs, i.e., whether the test still fails, or whether the problem still occurs for you with the latest Nov2009 CVS code base. Please report any findings in detail via the bug tracker.

2) check the open bugs assigned to you https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?words=tracker_browse&sort=assigned_to&a... a) whether there is a test in CVS for this bug or not; b) whether the problem still occurs, i.e., whether the test still fails, or whether the problem still occurs for you with the latest Nov2009 CVS code base. Please report any findings in detail via the bug tracker.

3) check all bug reports closed since Aug2009, whether they are (if applicable) backed-up by a test in CVS.

4) check all failing test in the TestWeb http://monetdb.cwi.nl/Development/TestWeb/Stable/ whether they are documented by a bug report.

Thank you very much in advance!

Stefan
