[Testing] Credits for OLPC's test case/results system, was Re: Fedora folks getting a crash course on Semantic Mediawiki forms tomorrow

[Joseph A. Feinstein]

Hi folks,

Just wanted to make sure that the credits for the current OLPC's test 
case/results system are spelled out properly. The system of test 
cases was designed by myself and then implemented (using Semantic 
Mediawiki) by Charlie Murphy (then an OLPC's intern) with help from 
Francesca Slade (also an OLPC's intern at the time).

The original idea to combine test cases and test results in the 
single system belongs to Kim Quirk, formerly OLPC's VP of Support.

The best person to consult on technical details of the implementation 
is Charlie Murphy, currently a student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute.

Regards,

Joe Feinstein, formerly OLPC's QA Lead
