Supporting multiple ECMAScript test suites

test262 isn't a single test suite anymore: Right now there are three different test suites in the repository - ECMA-262 conformance, ECMA-262 best practices, and ECMA-402 conformance. Soon we may want to fork off an ES6 test suite as well.
What should the web site look like that provides access to three or more different test suites? Right now, you see
http://test262.ecmascript.org
and you don't see
http://test262.ecmascript.org/testcases_intl402.html
http://test262.ecmascript.org/testcases_bestPractice.html
I propose we rename the site to
http://tests.ecmascript.org
and then have
http://tests.ecmascript.org/
as a welcome page with links to:
http://tests.ecmascript.org/ecma-262/
http://tests.ecmascript.org/ecma-262-bp/
http://tests.ecmascript.org/ecma-402/
Later we'll add
http://tests.ecmascript.org/ecma-262-6ed/
which will eventually become the new
http://tests.ecmascript.org/ecma-262/
What should the corresponding bug database buckets look like? Right now, there's a
Test262 | Test suite for Ecma-262 implementations
product with components
Test Harness | The infrastructure for running test262 tests
Test262 website | The test262.ecmascript.org website
Tests | The individual tests that make up the test262 suite
I propose we change this to
Test Suites | Test suites for ECMAScript implementations
Test Harness | The infrastructure for running tests,
including the tests.ecmascript.org web site
ECMA-262 Tests | The individual tests for ECMA-262
(Language Specification) conformance
ECMA-402 Tests | The individual tests for ECMA-402
(Internationalization API) conformance
Comments?
Thanks,
Norbert
