test directory

[Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo <lhf@...>]

We're thinking about removing the test directory from the tarball.

The programs in there do not really test anything; they are merely
examples of Lua code. Moreover, they're not really good examples of
Lua code (some of them come from old Lua versions).

Mike Pall has suggested offline that the community would be better
off with a 'known good' Lua source code repository. Initially it
could include all the examples from PIL, a few programs from the test
directory, and his benchmark tests. He thinks the Wiki is 'suboptimal'
for this. So perhaps it's better to have a luaforge project?
Any volunteers?

Anyone with strong feelings against removing the test directory?
