Hi
For those who have been wanting to improve the quality of releases, get effective dialogue and responses in bugzilla and work on reducing the chances for regressions in Fedora updates, here is a good opportunity to get involved.

There are some low hanging fruits that the community can potentially tackle in a better way. Every new update is first pushed into updates-testing repository to enable the community to test and check for regressions and provide feedback in the fedora-test list and the relevant bugzilla reports. The amount of feedback at times have been very low and thats usually ok for the large majority of updates but some of the them are heavy impact ones like the Kernel or Xorg updates and do require community testing. Internal testing does not always reveal regressions in specific chipsets, architecture and hardware . If you have a spare test machine lying around that you could use and you would like to tinker and get involved in Fedora, updates-testing and the Fedora development tree are for you.
General guidelines and instructions are available at : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/TestingGuide
