Oops, I think I left one thing unclear in this proposal:

- each library would have a 'unittests' folder for the tests that are specific to that library.  Ideally each object would have a test patch in the 'unittests' subfolder in the library, but we're a ways off of that.

I think that 'unittest' should be the standard name for them.  Then the patches will be called 'osc~-unittest.pd', the library subfolder will be called 'unittests', and then I think we need a new section in trunk called 'unittests'.

It could also be the place where all of the testing frameworks go, like the scripts that automate the running of the tests, the *-unittest.pd templates, etc.
