I think we should strive to become self sustaining community yes with 
multiple sponsors as opposed to be highly depended and dictated by a 
single sponsor be it Red Hat be it something else to serve it's needs 
and be called guinea pigs for them in the process yes you are right in 
that regard but that's not the reason for it.

The reason for it is that infra has made it clear that we will not have 
our own bugzilla instance which we could hack against the things we need 
to hack against it ( like health monitor for components,badges etc ), 
have the ability to ping infra as well as using upstream tools to 
fix,motify and even delete user accounts,customize our own workflows, 
not being able to lookup bugs because some employee at RH closed the bug 
as duplicate of internal bugs and various other issues in that regard 
etc. so we will never be able to build a QA community to server our and 
developers need which leaves us with the alternative adopting upstream 
mantra.
