Not trying to generate traffic, just trying to find out if the
list was working.

As far as the Hartmann test is concerned, I thought you would
have the ability to go and try for yourself and make your own
mind up. I merely pointed out its existance so you could see for
yourself that Focault wasn't The Only Way, or more to the point,
that a person new to mirror making should not be taught that
Focault is The Only Way. it won't give you a 2D error plot of
your mirror at a glance, for a start. If you want more - go find
out for yourself. Or don't. I really don't care.
