I've reverted test/unit to its original state (*). Further, I've
released miniunit under a new name "minitest" and broken it into two
packages: "minitest" and "minitest_tu_shim". They've been released as
gems today. I've imported minitest into trunk under lib/minitest. It
does not interact with test/unit in any way, shape, or form. You can
use it if you want to, or not. I'll be converting all of my projects
over to it in the near-term. RubyGems and RDoc have already been
converted and will be imported soon.

I want to give a special thanks to everyone who actually had something
meaningful to contribute, but especially to Dave Thomas who did a very
good job of talking me down and preventing me from throwing a grenade
into the works.

You can have your bikeshed arguments (**). I don't want them. I won't
be responding to any more mail wrt miniunit and i won't be responding
to anything on this thread. I need a break.

*) I _think_, svn was being a PITA, but it looks ok now (thanks erikh).
