Every release Citrix QA team is  encouraging and asking community participation 
in specific areas like upgrades / specific feature validation/ defect 
verification etc to promote QA culture and participation from community.  
Participation has been very low. Current model may not sustain in long run.   

Users that consume your contribution or developers producing the code can 
definitely participate in QA cycles and help to build community based quality 
team. QA framework is in place and just need participation and  there are 
several interesting areas that folks can choose and contribute.

Raja, unfortunately Citrix is the only party in the community that can afford a 
test team. The rest of us steps down from developing to pull their weight in 
testing. I think all of us are willing to do some testing. The problem is going 
to be planning the testing that we can do. So I think it only makes sense to 
focus on your point three and go from there.
