+Currently this testsuite tries to provide tests for XMLHttpRequest level 1.
+This test suite is not stable and is still under development. Tests may
+contain bugs and may change over time as a result of those bugs being fixed.
+
+When more browsers implement XMLHttpRequest level 2 this testsuite will
+slowly evolve most likely.

+
+If the folders above give the status of the feature tested you can assume
+this is against level 1 unless explicitly stated otherwise.
+
+NOTE: readyState and onreadystatechange are tested throughout the various
+tests. statusText is tested together with status.
+
+NOTE: open-url-base* have absolute paths in them. They need to be adjusted
+on a per location basis.
+
+NOTE: open-url-base-inserted-after-open.htm, open-url-base-inserted.htm,
+send-authentication.htm and open-url-base.htm refer to localhost.
+
+
+TESTS THAT ARE UNSTABLE AND (PROBABLY) NEED CHANGES
+ responsexml-basic (see email WHATWG)
+ send-authentication (see "user:password" debacle)
+
+
+TESTS NOT STARTED ON YET
