A few months ago there was a discussion about early access to the TCK as
being a generally good thing and there seemed to be a general consensus
for doing that in any later revisions of the spec. The Cliff Notes (tm)
version of the pros were mainly:
1) the ability to identify as early as possible problems in the TCK itself
2) to help providers get started on certifying
3) allow early feedback from the group as to missing portability coverage

I was just curious whether we could possibly start getting access to the
2.1 TCK, especially now that the spec is pretty solidified.
