<p>Try again on this.</p>
<p>a) Victor has said he will look, from time to time - after his
vacation.<br>
b) our vacations do not overlap<br>
c) comment was also made privately, re: my starting a worker for
buildbot, that there is not much sense in a bot if noone is
working on the tests.</p>
I'll do my best, in the (limited) time I have to work on c) - but
alone I cannot get anything done.<br>
<br>
So, Victor suggested I just ask for others to review for now - so I
can have some semblance of moving forward - before my vacation
starts (about when Victor gets back from his).<br>
<br>
In advance - many thanks.<br>

fails - and I am wondering if it is as simple as AIX default mode is ISO8559-1
and the test looks to be comparing UTF8 with the locale_default.
If that is the case, obviously this test will never succeed - asis.
Am I understanding the test properly.
If yes, then I'll see what I can come up with for a patch to the test for AIX.
If no, I'll need some hand holding to help me understand the test
A bigger challenge, and I think a major issue with many of the test failures is test_ssl.
Here I already know I'll need so assistance. I am quite lost. I know AIX at an expert level, but
I do not know python (especially python internals, macros, etc..) and after about 3 levels I am lost.
I also find it hard to get 'artifacts' from the tests to know what is expected.
Looking forward to assistance from various people - in understanding the tests,
and probably better python coding criticism.
