We had constant 7 votes on 4.1.7 and 4.1.6 release. However only 3 volunteers voted in both releases. These numbers are low in general. Maybe we need to organize test phases in order to raize the numbers. This will still not raise test attendance for a single feature.
How about we schedule a test release every quarter? These releases do not necessary lead to a release and are announced as unstable. But it would give people a better time frame to plan and we can advertise for tester. Just brainstorming. Peter Am 30.
