I want to keep to the 'Test Day' because the concurrency aspect - having everyone in IRC, including a developer to give a very fast feedback/fix loop - is one of the key features, and you can't maintain that over a period longer than a day.
However, I do agree in one way: we can certainly make use of testing done outside of the exact 'day', and we should make sure to always communicate that. I try to do so when talking about Test Days and when making pages for them, but any ways we can be even more explicit about this would be great:)
My thoughts: 1. The "Arriving after the date above?" admon on [1] & [2] work well to deliver the message about testing after the 'day'. Consider using this same admon on future test day pages. 2. Consider adding something similar to the 'Fedora_$REL_test_days' [3] and 'Test_Days' [4] pages. 3. Calling it a Test _Day_ sure makes it sound like it is limited to a single 24hour period. Maybe this is a marketing problem, is there a better name?
