REDbot updates

I've made a few changes to REDbot recently that have impact upon the Unicorn integration:

• all test state is now captured in red.state (but for practical purposes, you should be able to inspect red.state as if it were the old red object)
• you now need to call formatter.set_red(red.state)
• you now call red.run with an argument that's a done callback.
• I'm currently in the process of switching from nbhttp to thor (see github.com/mnot/redbot/tree/thor)

I don't think any of these are huge issues, but I don't have much visibility into unicorn, so it's probably best for it to be done by someone more familiar with it.

I pinged Hiro about this a while ago, but didn't hear anything back.

Also, red integration doesn't seem to be available from the W3C instance. If it isn't a feature that you're planning to use, perhaps it would be best if I removed the unicorn code from my repository?

Thanks,

Ping. Some more rewrites, I'm pretty sure it really isn't working now. Should I remove Unicorn from my repo, or should we update it?

I've removed the unicorn directory from REDbot; it was definitely not working.

If you want to re-integrate it, I'd suggest you just install the redbot package and write a local interface, instantiating the appropriate object(s) -- probably HttpResource -- as needed.
