Re: [sca-j] Re: Publishing Normative Java artifacts
Mary,

This is likely to apply to any TC which
has an executable test suite, whether described in the main spec

or in a separate TestSuite document.

I recommend that you circulate this
to all active TCs.

Hi David,

  Yes, that looks fine. Are the C/C++ and Java the only two TCs affected
by this? If there are others, I can write this up and pass it along, or
you should feel free to share :)
