You violently don't want understand anything what I have been trying to say? I say: Your testing group will *never* be able to test much more than a very tiny subset of use cases -- Let them test their limited testing scenarios, but keep them out of the rest of testing. => Instead of slowing down things by deploying a testing group, speed up things by fixing bug ASAP and ban "FIX UPSTREAM" (Like you are usually doing). It might be news to you, but experience tells this kind of strategy converges towards "stability", in mid-terms. Your strategy leads to over-all less testing, more bureaucracy and low quality. >> Feel free to think so, however can not disagree more. >Ralf, we've never agreed on much of anything.

I consider you (and a couple of other further members of FPB and FESCO) to be gradually running down Fedora, e.g. by advocating ever more regulations, installing more and more committees, and by trying to suppress the community.
