Re: Fit fest

In my view, part of what happened was that fit-fest saw a lot of 
exploratory testing. People did this as a way of understanding the system 
and fit is an excellent vehicle for doing this. I missed Bob's wrap up 
because i had to run off to the airport, but my flight was cancelled, so i 
got a recap of his opinions at the airport from later traveller-attendees.

Fit-fest was a chance for people to program for fun and make mistakes, and 
they did that. That is how people learn. There were a lot of mix-ups, but 
so what.

Anyway, i think people liked Fit, and i think that it helped them 
understand what was going on.
