In theory, "/tools/regression/xsl_reports/test_results.xsd", but
I'm afraid in our race to improve performance a few last changes
made the file format weren't reflected in the scheme. I've put it
on the issues page
(http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl?Boost.Testing),
but meanwhile, as long as you are only deleting things without
modifying the XML's structure, we should be safe.

As long as you do it in two steps (reformat and check in, then
make the desired changes and check in again), please be our guest.
