• Used the contact team members (xubuntu-testers) for testing call last time, 1 person amongst those mentioned above seems new to me
• QA team is running now - good forward step this, everyone knows (or should) what each other is working on
• Call to be written explaining exploratory testing - these will be reported via packages tracker, but is about people testing when they're using apps rather than to a schedule
