Originally I even tried to avoid calling the project "Fedora QA"* - since obviously we can't even agree on the definition of that, let alone how it differs from QC, QE, SQA, etc. I don't find those terms useful because we're talking about Quality at a level that's completely disconnected from any of the actual Stuff That Needs To Be Done In Fedora. I'd prefer we just agree to let "QA" be the umbrella term for all of it, and let the wiki talk more about things like "bug triage" and "release testing" and "tool development" and "updates process improvement", which have actual connections with parts of the Fedora project. But maybe I'm just being a bit too pragmatic. -w *(Unfortunately calling the subproject "Fedora Testing" limited the scope too much, and everyone just thought I was talking about a Debian-style "testing" branch of Fedora, or updates-testing, or some other thing.)
