 It's not something I'd envision a strong level of community participation
 on.  Mainly, since Fedora QA doesn't have a lot of experience/skill in
 this technical area.  That said ... I'm sure there are communities that
 might be interested in participating?  So, some questions to help explore
 our options ...

  1. What external customers/communities should we solicit for attendance?
  2. What is required to participate?
     1. What distro?  F12, Rawhide, other?
     2. Installed system or Live image?
     3. System requirements (single system or multiple)?
     4. Can a virtual lab be used?
  3. What test feedback is needed?
     1. Is there a hardware-specific component where community contributor
 feedback would be helpful (i.e. like xorg-x11-drv-* test days where
 testers all have different hardware?)
     2. Is there software-specific components where community feedback is
 needed? (for example, running tests against different versions of nfs
 (client+server), or across F-12, F-11 and rawhide)?
