Description

The TCK tests have been excluded for a while (perhaps in 1.8.0, certainly 1.9.0-SNAPSHOT) because they are too fragile to maintain.

Part of the reason for that is that they use the old in-memory object store.

Having them in the codebase is confusing because there's an expectation that they will pass, eg: this message to http://markmail.org/message/qi23ssz63m7rr57t.

Instead, we should start to rewrite the TCK usingthe isis-app-kitchensink (part of Isis addons).
