I think it allowed community contributions to be split up into smaller units
which will simplify the QA task.

I will try and guess what they do. Looking at a cws, they might ask these
questions:
- does it meet coding standards?
- does it break some other code in any other module?
- does it hinder future development?
- does it perpetuate something that should be removed?
- will it perform correctly in different situations?
- does it solve the problem?
- will it build correctly on all platforms and all build systems?

Probably the work is done by engineers using much intuition based on
experience and qualifications, which is not easily documented.

If I am right, then QA of  a cws is a completely different thing from the
community QA project.
