The people who have voiced their annoyance at the EOL situation should
do the testing, really. If they don't want to do it, then IMO we should
move forward anyway. There are more pressing issues involved in the
Mercurial transition (for example, what we will replace the svnmerge
process with) and I find it a bit annoying that we have to focus on the
micro-issue of EOL translation, which (judging by mailing-list
archives) doesn't seem to affect the Windows-based Mercurial users
at large.
