Hello All At our June meeting at Harvard University, the community in attendance decided to improve QA efforts on a crowdsourcing basis. We would therefore like to invite you to join a "bug bash" [1], to follow later this summer, to help developers release a stable 1.4 version of Matterhorn in the fall. The idea behind a bug bush is simple: In a coordinated effort, people will test the upcoming release in order to find flaws and bugs. This is by no means limited to experts and developers. Quite the opposite: Anyone who has played with the Matterhorn front end can help; [2] tells you more. And yes, there will be prizes and depending on your time zone, there might be pizza as well.
Before we go into the details though, we need to see some volunteering. Please indicate your availability at https://ethz.doodle.com/skeq9tspndvc8ef9 and register at http://fwd4.me/16Qq if you can make at least one of the slots. We will come back to the list to set a date and inform you about the details. At Harvard, we already succeeded in luring a handful of people into this, but without your contribution, this effort won't succeed. The Opencast Board [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug_bash.
