A very large part - if not all - of the qa effort is branding and role
specific within centos. Most of the other things only contribute towards
documentation - not the release process itself. Of course there are
exceptions ( like the installer... ) but not many

This is a bit of a confused state of things - and I am not sure what can
we done about clearing out the situation that the -qa list does not have
any C6 specific / testing / branding anything content on there.
One idea is to rename the QA team into what it really is - the Release
team, and have a whitelist based package tree available to a larger
number of people ( but still not public - we cant do public builds, and
thats already been covered extensively )

You will need to speak to Red Hat about that; Because the centos
development community all have @redhat.com email address :) So the
question here really is : how best can we communicate that to a wider
audience and have that idea persist ?
