I suppose I'm willing. What exactly do "we" need? I don't mind "starting". I sort of "test" openSUSE all the time. I guess I don't know exactly "what" we test (everything?).
That's something that can be discussed during the community week I guess. In the meanwhile I would say "just use it in your regular routine usage".
In conclusion, at the moment it seems the idea of creating a stable, community-based, testing team is not feasible. We'll see however if someone shows up at the community week.
How do I "show up"? I didn't see specifics about webcasts or IRCs? Did I miss something?
The request for volunteers was in the slides I sent around and in almost all my emails about the idea of testing team. ;-) Anyway, thanks for showing up :)
On my side, I'm oriented to dedicate my efforts to other projects, more related to my activity. I hope someone else will try again, and succeed in making this idea reality. Good luck.
Willing to get involved.... you've been warned :)
Do you want to lead the idea? If so, that would be great. Best, Alberto You might not get all the volunteers that you'd hope to have a very successful group, but if you start it and pursue it I'd imagine that over time it will grow because you have created the infrastructure. Even if there are few, I'd still create a test plan. You might not be able to complete it, but at least there is a clear path to follow and anyone with a spare minute can jump in and complete a task or 2. I'll see if we can get access to testopia on bugzilla.novell.com. I think that could help with trying to build a community around testing. What are everyone's thought?
