I don't want to do sessions, but would quite like to offer a wiki page 
on my method of testing.  Briefly: I get the earliest possible testing 
release and install this.  I have three hard-drives on a pc.  Two of 
them are used for the current version and the testing version arranged 
to dual-boot.  The third drive is a large storage drive for backups and 
for old data.  I boot into the testing version and do all my work on 
that.  When it breaks catastrophically (at least once per cycle) I 
simply re-install and use the current stable version until I have it up 
and running again.  All data is synchronised so I have few problems.

Doing it this way means far more live testing of each release and it is 
fascinating to watch the release develop.

Where do I put such a wiki page please?

Regards,        Barry.
