Posted and Mailed  - for obvious reasons, and not in one go, and not to
David either :-)

Hi Jeroen

Please ignore what I'm posting with :-)

I was looking up the GNKSA evaluation for Turnpike, and I see that Turnpike
6.01 (not 6.0.1 as you have on the site) achieved a 93% rating.

I notice that products in the Failed lists which go to a later version are
re-sequenced according to that later version's improved % score on MUSTs.

But TP 6.01 has not bubbled to its rightful place of fourth in the Passed
list for MS-DOS, etc, because its placing seems to be still determined by
Turnpike 5.01,  with its 67% rating.

Would you consider resequencing the Passed lists when the SHOULDs improve,
as you do the Failed lists when the MUSTs improve?

That would elevate Turnpike to nearer its rightful place (and by the same
standard, slrn would also go up one place in the Unix 'Passed' list).

Thanks
