I would like the QA to receive a bit where they're at and where they're going at the start of each release cycle so we can monitor Anaconda progress. When AutoQA can do Anaconda GUI installation testing I think it's safe to say we can remove it and then just have couple of Targeted Anaconda Installation Test Day's. JBG
