Most teams are using the wiki for the things that change frequently and 
need to iterate quickly and the more stable information gets published on
the meego.com blog as an update.

Again, my main concern is that having this Wordpress blog fragments
the information and makes it more difficult for people to find. When someone
searches the wiki or meego.com, they aren't going to find the information 
that you are putting on Wordpress. I see having this be separate as 
a bit damaging to the project as a whole, since it duplicates our existing
infrastructure and makes it harder for people to find information about 
QA tools. I strongly recommend moving this information to the wiki
and the meego.com blog.
