Great stuff!!! Excellent idea, Alex!

Quick question (I'm thinking the answer will be longer! :p) - is there
anyway to integrate both your and Thijs' code base so they don't run
out of sync?

On logos etc - If anyone needs various OCCI branding just drop me a
line. I'll soon get all various branding and logos up on the main
website.

I don't suppose you could throw a few lines together as the content of
a blog post?

Ultimately, the testing tool should look similar to the web pages at http://occi-wg.org (ask Andy whether you can feel free to steal stuff from there for the GAE app!).
