Hey,
by the amount of occurrences of the word "testing" can you please move this discussion to the opensuse-testing list?
Once you have everything figured out and have actionable tasks we can help you with don't hesitate to let us know! We will see what we can do then. But for now I don't think the Boosters are the right crowd for this discussion. The openSUSE Testing team is.

Tony, another tip: it seems like a big plan, I'd scale it down. A big plan means it would need a decent dedicated team (say 3-5 volunteers at least) to make it happen. As everyone is busy on things THEY consider higher priority, this is unlikely to happen - as usual. That's how it works in a FOSS project. Now people might say - do it, and some might join to help you. But for that, such a huge project is not fun: if you'd do it alone, in your free time, well - you're busy too. And working on something that won't bear any fruits for a long time (if ever) is just not nice. So try to go for some small improvements to the current processes while keeping the big picture in the back of your head. You're much more likely to find ppl to help you with small, easily digestable and obviously beneficial tasks. Then in time, the big dream you had will suddenly be only a few steps away ;-) Cheers, Jos
