As explained a few times: there are things within Fedora as a whole (not
the QA group) which you need to be a member of a FAS group other than
'cla_done' to get access to - the intent being that only people who are
'members' of Fedora in some way should get them. Space on
fedorapeople.org and voting rights are the two examples I've cited, I
think there may be more than that.
