Huh. I didn't know about disttest. Thanks for the tip.
However, one difference is that this will create a Foo-Bar-#.## directory, copy everything over, create a META.yml, and other such activities. That can be somewhat expensive.
Another difference is that this will only run the distribution tests - it won't run any developer tests that are under source control, but not in the MANIFEST.
Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing. Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid. Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence. Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.
