Sure, that makes sense.  I hadn't noticed this document.  The CVS page
[1] did not mention that in addition to

  $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@gborg.postgresql.org:/usr/local/cvsroot/pgjdbc co -P pgjdbc

you could also check out

  $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@gborg.postgresql.org:/usr/local/cvsroot/pgjdbc co -P www


Now that you mentioned it, I'll keep this in mind.

Before attempting to tackle the 1.3.1 suite, I tried to get 1.2.1 up
and running.  My results are as follows:

    PASSED:  1778
    FAILED:   510

The attached report lists the names of failing tests.  Do these
numbers seem to be in the right ballpark, or am I wildly off base
here?  I haven't begun to take a closer look at failures [2] yet.
Thought I'd ask here first.

BTW, I wrote a little script to automate the testsuite setup [3].  If
anyone finds it useful, it might make sense to find a place for it in
CVS.


Thanks,
Vadim
