Hi, folks. The Test Day cycle for Fedora 16 will open shortly, and we're putting out the call for anyone who has an idea for a Test Day. There are many open slots on the schedule - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Fedora_16_test_days - and if they all fill up or you would like to run a set of Test Days on related topics, we can organize events outside of the scheduled Thursday windows too.
It's often a good idea to have a Test Day for a major change or new feature you're introducing to the distribution, but we can run a Test Day on just about any topic. There is a full guide to organizing Test Days available - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/SOP_Test_Day_management - and the QA team is happy both to help you run a Test Day and to butt out and let you run it yourself, whichever you prefer! If you're interested in running a Test Day, please contact QA via the test mailing list, file a ticket in QA trac - https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa - and/or pencil in your event on the schedule, create a Wiki page based on the template (see the SOP for details), and get down to work. Thanks!

Hi Adam,
On the week of Aug 7 David Shein and I will be at POSSE-RIT teaching professors how open source communities work. On the Wednesay afternoon and Thursday of that week, the participants are jumping in to a few open source projects and getting their feet wet; if there was a test day on August 11 you could have a small pool of enthusiastic labor with some on-the-ground guidance. We might be able to do testing that would require some set-up, e.g., we could bring in a switch and create a test LAN.
Let me know if this would be useful and we'll set it up...

Hi, Chris. There almost certainly will be a Test Day on that date; we usually fill up the schedule. I'll see if we can wiggle things around a bit and make sure it's a beginner-appropriate event on that date. Thanks!

Hi Adam,
We're a week out from this -- any candidates for test day for next Thursday?
(If not, would it make sense to do additional early testing on, say, Power Management (scheduled for Sept 29), since we shgould have a bunch of diverse machines?)

crap, sorry, fell off my radar. I'm about to go out but I'll try and take a look at this when I get back. We're a bit rushed with Alpha TC1 stuff right now though :(
