Hi Dave,

Thank you for your proposal. This section is really not something, which is
a showstopper for the move. Can I interest you in something which is?

Production use of BT is really three separate section:

* program execution monitor (this page exists, but might require minor
clean up/introduction. This should probably also include reference to
execution_monitor, which is now covered in reference documentation.
* Using testing tools interface for assertion in production code. This was
a subject of my talk few years ago. To be frank with you, I am not
convinced this is in working state anymore. It'll require some development
first probably
* Placing unit tests into production libraries. This was also part to the
talk. May deserve a separate section on different ways to setup unit tests
in projects.
