Re: Static tests

Hi Gary,
 
I'll go back to doing snapshots when I have a more stable build - and after
I release
2.4.7 and merge the changes from that branch into the head.

Hi Charlie,
 
I think that this is good - I don't use them personally, but I've been
reading on various F# forums that they've wanted static test methods. Also,
they've wanted the static test methods to be recognised even if they don't
live in a TestFixture class. I was half-tempted to create an extension, but
I'm busy enough as it is, any takers?
 
You mentioned the CVS HEAD - will you do a package of this before making too
many changes? I dont' have any tool to grab the sources directly unless
they're packaged, and it'll be easier to see if my extension still works
with 2.5 if the changes are more incremental ;-)
 
Cheers,
Gary
