NUnit vs MbUnit, lets not.

There is a wiki thread discussing MbUnit vs NUnit. I tend to avoid comparing both frameworks when our aims are to achieve the same thing, test software. Long term we do aim to to use the expansion hooks in NUnit so you can hook in MbUnit to NUunit (in much the same way Charlie explains CUnit and VSTS). MbUnit is now a open source project and under a similar license to NUnit, the details of that license will be added to the wiki and CVS ASAP. I welcome Charlie and the NUnit folks to share, contribute and discuss.

The page is probably misnamed, since there really is no comparison of features.

The discussion really has to do with somebody's opinion that we should abandon development on NUnit, because MbUnit is so great. An obvious troll, and I fell for it. :-(

One interesting discussion topic to take up somewhere is "Are there intrinsic differences between the two projects and, if so, why?" I'm not sure where to have that discussion though.
