This looks almost fine, but what's the deal with the tests? Seems like there's a bunch of test files, but I'm not sure how to run them. If we can enable them, it'd be great.

What are the kind of compatibility concerns between releases? Like, let's say 3.6.0 comes out. Will that possibly break anybody expecting 3.5.1? Or do they reserve such breaks for major release versions?

Hi Michael,

1. The tests are to be run on a web-browser for which I don't think we have an easy way to enable them.

2. We raised the concerns about the compatibility between releases to the Debian Maintainer, in order to allow shipping various YUI versions in the same release, that would have meant the change on installation paths in order to allow this. However the Debian Maintainer expressed that it was unlikely that this would happen and then rejected the idea we proposed. Additionally, we didn't want to keep a big delta with Debian by doing so.

Well, bummer on both counts. I guess when/if an incompatible split happens and it causes problems, we can always version paths then. Certainly for the moment, it's not worth a delta.
