Hello all,

In the run up to the 2017a release I ran my usual set of regression tests and they turned up a few issues that needed attention, so I've made quite a few small changes over the last several days.

Today I ran all my tests again (including testing all the function packages and addons). Things look OK, and I've put up a new snapshot which is in effect the release candidate. But I'd feel more comfortable if other people could do some independent testing to check that my "fixes" haven't broken anything.

I'm therefore proposing to wait until this Friday for the release. If you can beat on the snapshot and report any problems before then that would be much appreciated.

It's a real shame that nobody has had the time to work on Helio's idea of a unit test repo. It would come in handy at release time. As impressive as Allin's collection of test scripts is, it'd be nice to have a distributable semi-automaic testing tool.
