i just wanted to send a public "thank you" to Justus Winter for his
ongoing work on the GnuPG test suite.

Any test suite for complex software is never complete, but it is an
excellent bulwark against regression, and a boon to bootstrapping the
project to new architectures with confidence.

Justus's practice of resolving bugs by including counterexamples in the
test suite to ensure future failures are caught at build time is really
valuable.  This is important work that is sometimes tedious and often
thankless, but it makes a real difference.

Thanks, Justus!
