1. sanity.ex
Is sanity.ex going to be replaced with unit tests, or are the unit tests solely
for the standard library?
I'm trying (slowly) to get back to helping out around here instead of just
making inane comments, but the last time I messed with the code in the svn
repository sanity.ex wasn't working due to changes in get.e I believe.
Is sanity.ex working now with either 3.1.1 or with 4.0?

sanity.ex is still valid, however, I think unit tests are easier to maintain and
use. I have not converted anything from sanity.ex to unit tests. Unit tests does
currently test some internal functions. Eventually, I think sanity.ex should not
exist but there are too many checks in it right now to remove it.
So, did that answer the question?

This is *great* news! Thanks! I actually just ran sanity.ex and had to make one
simple change to it (include math.e). It tells me 100% passed. So, until
sanity.ex is merged into unit testing, it wouldn't be a bad idea to run both
before committing.
Migrating sanity.ex to unit tests should be a goal before 4.0 release.
