• QMO stuff (marcia)
  • B3 nightly testweek
    • discussion - not much feedback so far about the testweek. Getting people to log in to #testday throughout the week.
  • Style Guide/Community Leads
    • It has become clear that we need to both have a process for promoting people to Community Leads as well as some control over people adding content. Today I noticed that someone had added "It's okay we don't bite" to the Community FAQ - I edited that content out, but we can't just let people add content willy nilly. There needs to be some sort of review process. One thing that Tomcat mentioned is to have people create bugs and then have a QA team member review + the document just like a patch.
    • discussion - should have a vetting process for community members who want admin access. (marcia) and (tomcat) to work on a guide to demonstrate they are behaving properly.
    • discussion - for content issues, should we review what content is posted before allowing it on QMO? (marcia) and (tomcat) to work on a policy guide.

• Testweek Rotation - Each QA member to sign up
  • discussion - slot in each member into the rotation, and have them be responsible for moderating/organizing the week. Ask for additional help when needed for that week. Testdev team should also be on the loop.

• Localizers survey and how it affects mozQA (timr)
  • discussion - broad, first pass on how to get l10n teams to be testing their locales better. Third party multilingual QA services are helping out. Doesnt affect mozQA daily activities, but we should look over what areas we can give any QA input to, regarding the survey.

• Open positions
  • QA Execution Engineer
  • Senior Web Dev Test Engineer
