I think you have the right instinct. You stand to make your job
easier with any sharing that you can do. It encourages others to
participate. Even smaller amounts consistently shared create the
right culture ("slow and steady wins the race"), and when a bigger
pathway opens (RHTS & Beaker, for example), you've got a portion of
the groundwork laid out and a working culture of testing and
participating.
Let us know if there's anything you need to make it easier or more
productive for you in sharing testing ideas and results.
Now that I've pushed a package for testing in a PPA I'm looking for
automated testing of the packages. I've noticed there were some tests
in the upstream code but I haven't had time yet to look into enabling
them at build time (is it even possible?). Any other tests would also
be welcomed ; especially if they can automated and integrated with
checkbox [1].
