I don't have any insights on the implementation details, and agreethat
it is hard to do well, but it is essential for quality.
It's more than the level of effort for testing, we need to
eliminatevariability, and everyone be able to point to the same thing
and say,"is good".
But working on this today, would it introduce great variability
verseswhat will be deployed to production? I hesitate to suggest this
mightbe a problem for six months from now when everyone has had some
timeto work out the details of their own flavors, and worked with
thoseflavors with customers.

Still without something how do we measure quality.
