That's too idealistic. Developers should develop as well as test to the extend it is feasible.
It STILL would fall into the hands of the QA to double check if he/they missed something..
Sure but like I said, this is a complimentary effort.

The responsibility isn't just with the QA team. It is primarily with the developers. QA is just helping. I applaud your efforts to improve that team but don't assume blame for everything.
But I do agree with you that it would help if he/they have updates-testing enabled to test their component that is if they are actually developing and using it on Fedora GA release..
It would also help, if people didn't just bypass the testing repository altogether even for security updates as the dbus security update fiasco has just taught us, yet again.
In reality we need more devs..
Yeah, we need more of everything. Rahul -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
