Thanks for bringing this up, Charlie. You are one of the few people that were present in most meetings, and as you know, we didn't have a lot of outside presence in them. This, and the changes that are undergoing in QA, that require more focus, are the reasons why we are changing the format of the meetings. Maybe, by bringing the right attention to QA and the right attention to bugs, we can increase the QA community and find someone that can help you as well. We are going to document and publish everything that is discussed in both meetings, so anyone could make use of the mailing lists to discuss any concern if they are not able to attend one of the meetings in person. Historically, in Ubuntu, bug triaging and QA have been very interconnected and often confused, by bringing that separation to it we are increasing our chances of success in doing better testing and better triaging, in my opinion. We'll help you with you time problem if you cannot attend some of the meetings, and we will consider compressing both meetings to 30 mins each if that is all the time that is required, let's see how it goes and how much time is really necessary for each once they are established in their new formats.
