We will definitely need a team leader, and I believe that we probably also need at least one or two core members that are willing to commit themselves to helping make this happen. Mark Murray might be a good start, since he's the guy who convinced me that I need to take part in this process. ;-) > I think one team would do it - STABLE testing most of the time, > and CURRENT testing prior to a RELEASE. Fair enough. However, at the moment, we're coming up soon on a dot-zero release, so we need people testing -CURRENT. > I may be able to run FreeBSD on a handful of machines for testing. > If there's enough people to volunteer, I could set up a rack of > systems for this kind of work. The more systems we could get set up testing a variety of different roles, the better. If/when I can get a co-location setup going, I'd be willing to run some vmware sessions that have live sites, and which could be used as testbeds for this sort of thing. > We can take this off list if need be, but I'd like to hear from > anyone interested in doing this.
