Look, there is a person who is being paid by MicroFocus to be doing the job of being the person for QA for openSUSE.
Questions like the one you pose above should be directed at that QA person because they don't appear to be simple questions about sudden "bugs".
Come to think of it, why paying someone for being a "QA" person and also have a "bugzilla" where other non-paying people are solving problems which -- the way I see it -- should be foreseen and prevented by a QA person?
But then, what do I know? Not much, clearly.
There is no employee of SUSE being paid for being the job for QA for openSUSE
If you thought you were referring to me, then allow me to explain my jobs a little clearer
Richard, you do not have to explain to me what your job is, or jobs are. I was made aware that there was someone who was supposed to be responsible for QA -- taken to be Quality Assurance -- and I was directing my comments on that basis. But it appears that you have taken my comments to be directed at you which was never my intention. However, I fully understand why you would think that the comments were directed at you because when one is under pressure one develops a mild case of paranoia and therefore assumes that whatever is being said is being said about ones self. Please relax and approach things in a calm way.
I have two
I am employed by SUSE as the Technical Lead of openQA, where my responsibilities are mostly centred around SUSE's use of openQA for testing SUSE's Enterprise products. Of course as openQA is an Open Source and openSUSE Project that means I quite often help the various people working on openSUSE's use of openQA as part of Tumbleweed and Leap development, but I wouldn't describe myself as 'responsible' for it any more than every other contributor to openSUSE.
I am also employed/appointed by SUSE as the Chairman of the openSUSE Project, where my responsibilities are the same as the rest of the openSUSE Board - Lead the Project, Be a Central Point of Contact, Resolve Conflicts, Faciliate Decision Making, Facilitate Communication. In addition to the rest of the Board, I have an explicit additional responsibility to Communicate the communities needs to SUSE, and visa versa, be sure that SUSE is doing a good job of communicating it's interests to the community
And of course, in addition to all that, I'm a contributor to openSUSE, just like I've always been since the project started and long before finding myself with either of those positions.
And if you didn't mean me..I have no idea who else you could be possibly getting confused with...
