Opensource is about making the developement process visible - not
the end product. That's where "commit early, commit often" phrase
comes from.

Please consider using openib.org SVN or some other public repository
to do the developement. It will make it easier for other potential
partners to grab your very latest bits and give them a whirl.
And if they don't work, report bugs (hopefully with patches).

I hope this isn't just about developing a test framework - enough
of those exist under GPL or other open source license.
e.g. The one Bernhard Fischer pointed out is here:

But there are lots of other ones from OSDL and on sourceforge.
