Subject: COMPILER VALIDATION

I can see the benefit of having the British MoD allowed to validate compilers, 
but I see no reason for them to establish their own validation suite.  That's 
courting disaster.  If there is to be only one specification for the language 
there should be only one validation suite.  If MoD has the need for some 
different or additional tests, it seems they could work together with the US 
DoD ACVC to establish a common validation suite acceptable to both.
