Right. Furthermore, testing implies finding bugs, discussing, struggling
and arguing with package maintainers and upstreams. Not necessarily a
way to make friends :)
However, I think the primary cause in is Fedora's work-flow and Fedora's
infrastructure. I find them not to be really helpful to such endeavors.
I do think Windows has improved a lot since they added the crash
reporter. OS X has one - and I though Ubuntu included one too although
I haven't seen anything trip it.
