Fwd: Re: Helping to improve advertising of test days and other things

@Robyn
Your idea looks interesting to me. I have been a fedora user from the past
5 years and i have not done anything to help fedora. Even now my
understanding of linux is similar to that of a newbie. I think that your
suggestions will help promote qa testing.

@Samuel
I doubt making testing look cool would have much effect as the people who
have the skills to test and follow up do not care about such things.
However, it may increase interest.
