Note(s) from the Maintainer:
==============================
Continuing with our effort for testing new areas, we saw major
contributions in terms of new tests this month. I am hoping that this
trend will be carried forward in the coming quarters as well.

Michal Simek´s effort to cleanup LTP coding style and provide fixes for
them is a good move. I am sure that he will complete that in coming
months.

Our web site also contains other information such as:
- A Linux test tools matrix
- Technical papers
- How To's on Linux testing
- Code coverage analysis tool.

We would encourage the community to post results to
ltp-results@lists.sf.net,
patches, new tests, bugs or comments/questions to ltp-list@lists.sf.net,
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=3382&atid=103382 (for
