The Cloud WG is just managing themselves as it should be and had
started their own QA initiative with "Red" leading that effort and is
in a momentum which is why it came as a surprise when we suddenly
assigned QA people to draft a test plan and interrupt that process
and momentum ( hence my mail on the 14 ) and now you have taken
ownership of his ticket as opposed to us just continue to observer,
see where they would go with that and if other WG's would not follow
their lead ( and us strongly indicating to other WG's they should be
following the clouds lead ).
I didn't just "take" his ticket - I talked to Red first, asking if there
was anything I could help out with. He suggested I take the ticket if I
wanted to work on it (since he hadn't started it yet) and that
he'd polish up whatever pieces I missed.
"I know I haven't been around long, but from what I've
seen we have a
really solid team across the Fedora Project that will work together
to make things happen and produce a well tested, solid release for
Fedora 21 (in all it's flavors)."
Just given it a few more release cycle and that newbie blindness will
wear off ;)

I dunno - I've worked with some dysfunctional teams in the past, and
Fedora doesn't strike me as one of them. But hey, if in a couple
releases I suddenly change my mind on the impression I have of Fedora
and it's users/contributors, I'll buy you a beer next time I'm in your
neck of the woods. :)
