| QA Coordinator |

Hello everyone,
As most of you will probably know there was a CentOS
developers day
last Friday (before the FOSDEM event). One of the things
discussed
during that day was the need/use for a QA coordinator. I
think the
best way to describe the job role is that this person should
be
between the developers and the QA team and make sure that QA
testing
is efficient and on time (as best as we can get). Also the
coordinator
is the single point of contact for the developers to talk to
the QA
team and the other way around.
I am the "lucky" person that will try to be this
QA coordinator from
now on. So I would like to make the following arrangements
:
Towards the developers. Let me know as soon as possible when
there is
something in the pipeline that will need to tested by the QA
team. The
sooner as I know the sooner that I get can the testers
mobilized and
ready.
For the members of the QA team. If you are still interested
in testing
then make sure you are added to the QA Team page on the
wiki
(http://wiki.centos.org/
QaTeam). During testing document all your
findings on the wiki so we can keep track of things.
I will try to make a test plan and some sort of schedule on
the wiki
for each release that needs to go through QA as soon that
I'm aware
that a release is coming for testing, so everybody knows
when there is
a need for testing.
Alright, that is it for know I think. Let me know if you
have any
questions, comments, things I forgot, ...
Regards,
Tim
Your friendly neighborhood QA coordinator

Thanks for stepping up for this task! and also for the
excellent efforts
you guys made for the 5.1 release.
There should be a wider scale announcement that will go out
about this
shortly.

Thanks for picking this up. Your work on 5.1 QA was a
terrific job,
and bodes well for future QA cycles.

Hi! And also my thanks for taking this rather unglamorous
(and unpaid) job.
Would you also be our point of contact when we run into
issues like
the last kernel-nfs problem?

Basically everything that comes up during QA and that needs
to be fed
back to the developers or upstream should go through me so
we can make
sure the issues are logged and followed up upon.

Tim

DVDs ? :-D)
