Hi All,
an IRC chat would be great, so we can discuss how to proceed and were we
should set our focus.
For proceeding I would suggest, that we create a list of hardware as already
suggested and structure it according to the hardware support list. So we get a
good overview of which areas of hardware is covered and which is not.
We can put this list than on the Wiki so everybody has access to it.
The other thing I suggest is that we start with the two test plans holgi has
provided so far. As I have seen It's quit a lot of tests to run. If we have
done so we get a good "feeling" of how to proceed and fill the gaps.
I don't expect to be fully "operational" on the testing issue with a new team
in the next two or three releases.

We  also should considere to create a third test plan covering this hardware
issue during installation. From my experience it's always the most      
annoying
part of the installation and the most users of Liinux want to know if their
hardware works with the new release.

Well... I agree. We have a lot of tests which Holgi already provided,
I`m just wondering to do extensively tests, more than provided by
Holgi. But also, is so important to work with pre-configured tests in
Bugzilla.
For hardware tests, a list in a wiki, with all hardware tested and
compatibility is a great idea!


Another thing I would suggest is that we go through the bug list of a new
release and compile tests for the most often appearing issues. So we learn
from the community.

And the last for now, we should think of how to automate tests, because
testing a operating system with all it's applications and options is quite a
big task.

Cheers and happy testing

 Jürgen

Yes I think we should arrange a meeting maybe on irc?, so we can all
exchange some ideas and really start moving since we are at m7. Maybe some
things we could touch on are,

Areas of interest(Multimedia, kde, gnome performance etc)
Hardware available
Times/schedules of each member
The breaking down of testing into teams (I like the desktop, installation
and maybe server groups)

etc

But thinking about it we probably should inform everyone of our schedules
now so we can see when everyone is available.

Most days I work 11:30am - 7:30pm so i am mainly free 8 - 10:20 (11:30 if
you count just email), and then from 4:30 onwards as work is slower then,
all that is GMT mon - fri and I all completely free most weekends.

One last thing I really like Gabriel Stein post that think that's a good
place to start a discussion from.
