Comment (by mcloaked):

 OK - on the use of bodhi can you tell me if you have already added any
 comments in recent times for specific packages at
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ ? You can do so whether you are
 proventester or not.

 You can of course use fedora-easy-karma even if you are not a proventester
 - have you tried yet?

 On testing what I meant was that there was some concern that one or two
 proventesters were adding comments such as "works for me" but not saying
 whether any specific tests were done - it is important to confirm whether
 fixes listed and referred to in bugzilla references have been checked as
 fixed and if so then adding comments to that effect. Similarly if you test
 something specific in a new package and there is a bug or regression then
 it is important to mention it and even better to open a bug report and add
 its reference in the comments. That way developers and maintainers can act
 directly on the information since they will be keeping a close eye on
 feedback on their new package.

 I hope that helps?
