Thanks for the pointer... interesting articles.

Unfortunately, Stephen's code is licensed under MS-PL, making it incompatible
with either the NUnit 2.6 or NUnit 3.0 license. (I looked that up before linking
to the code and then didn't look at it to avoid any possibility of "stealing" it
by mistake.)

It's not clear to me how some folks choose licenses, but a lot of them are
using MS-PL these days, perhaps not realizing that code can't be used by
any open source projects except those that also use MS-PL.

Nevertheless, we'll get there anyway. :-)
