I don't mind what you want tested. My server isn't that impressive 
though...an old p120 with 32mb of RAM, so it takesd about an hour to compile 
a single version of samba. Anyhow, what ever you want me to do I am more 
than willing to do, within reason.

Phil.

Are you essentially want to test TNG ?
Head/2.2 branch might need testing.
Especially 2.2, because official launch is getting progresively closer ...

doctors...]

Hi Everyone,

I would just like to say that I am more than willing to provide a
playground
for TNG to be tested in. Despite my age (16 years old) I think I have
plenty
to offer as a tester, including a non critical environment in which to
test
it and a variety of hardware / software.

Hope this will help,

Phil Quinney
