Dear Vedrin & All:

Vedrin - so nice to have your help on useful summaries :).  Suggestions 
look like a good capture from our discussion and we should proceed.

The link for http://www.opentox.org/dev/requirements/use-cases is 
intended as a place-holder for completed reviewed use cases and I hope 
we load cases there as we achieve that in the New Year, but this is a 
current behind working todo.  It would be ok to use there, but perhaps 
better would be to set up corresponding testcase pages for FastTox and 
ToxModel for the first Prototype/iterations 3-4 in the test area:
http://www.opentox.org/dev/testing

Otherwise suggest we go ahead e.g.,
a. Micha/Andreas setup initial structure (pages, alert function, 
template, any guidance .. etc.)
b. Nina/Christoph/Stefan ¦ IDEA/IST/TUM setup initial outline on pages 
for primary two test cases
c. All contributors add relevent comments/links/edits/links to 
individual or API issue trackers/deliverables cross referencing etc.
d. We could add Test Case issue trackers
...
We can then treat this area as the centralised ongoing reference for 
updates from all on first Prototype/iterations 3-4 tasks/issues and 
which can also be referred/linked to from OTD emails.
