All - thanks for your detailed thoughts on this so far. It seems like this should've come with a fair bit of notice. I will hold on this separation for now. May be a couple more releases to see the level of participation in the QA and if it still feels like a hindrance we'll discuss separating it l

I'll summarize and address the concerns raised so far. Marvin has been in this repo for a long time for us to start writing tests. The only tests I've seen coming are from a specific set of people focussed on QA efforts. I want to reduce the impediment for people who are writing tests *today*. Tho

Yeah...I'm more amendable to this proposal. I just don't see tests being separated from the source release. In fact, I see a lot of problems with matching versions and releases. I still question the value of separating out a framework where both ends (tests and the server it tests) stay in th

I would like to seperate marvin from the main cloudstack repo. Much of marvin's development has little coupling with CloudStack. Similar to CloudMonkey, marvin undergoes rapid changes and it is essential to provide a smooth workflow and faster releases for those working with it. There are also
