Hi, folks. So, over the months, we've agglomerated some fairly useful instructions on Bodhi karma in the proven testers page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Proven_tester#Feedback_procedures
However, as kparal's https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa/ticket/287 ticket points out, this isn't really the best way to present this information. It started out being written in a way that really targeted proven testers, but it's grown more and more generic over time and is useful to much more than just proven testers; and the PT program is suspended anyhow.
So, in accordance with the suggestion in that ticket, I've drafted up a proposed separate page for the feedback guidelines. It's really just the Feedback Procedures section taken out and edited slightly to stand alone and no longer have anything specific to proven testers in it. I also added a few things that I was planning to add to the section anyhow.
Here's the draft:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Adamwill/Draft_QA_Update_feedback_guidel...
If accepted, it would live at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Update_feedback_guidelines
and there would be links from various appropriate pages - from the updates_testing page, the proven_testers page, and the Bodhi page at least. The proven testers page would be appropriately tweaked to flow correctly with the section left out. Finally, we would contact the Bodhi team and ask them to provide prominent links to the page in Bodhi. Bodhi actually already links to the proven testers page, but the link is an unlabelled icon that's easy to miss (I never noticed it until today).
Any comments or suggested improvements on either the text of the draft or the broad plan are welcome, either here or on the trac ticket. Thanks!

I like the text, let's do this.

I've gone ahead and put this into production as described above, since the feedback on the proposal was positive. I mailed Luke to ask for the Bodhi link to be updated. If anyone can think of anywhere else in the Wiki to add a link to the new instructions, please do! Thanks.
