Thanks for the lovely chat on irc Omer. I wish you the best on your
efforts to help the bug squad. As we spoke about, while our end goals
are similar (as with all the ubuntu teams), our focus is different and
should remain separate to allow us to work effectively.
Cheers,
Nicholas

I would say that then the word ubuntu-quality is a bit too broad than
its actual purpose, i should have researched more but i did think they
were not limited to ISO testing only. As you stated that's not the
case then its a bit of misunderstanding about #ubuntu-quality on my end.

I am in full agreement with Micah, what #ubuntu-quality does is ISO
testing and other ISO/image related testing, and not necessarily bug
triage. I lurk in both #ubuntu-bugs and #ubuntu-quality. The
channels have separate goals. And in #ubuntu-bugs, I'm also more than
happy to help out with bug triaging, but I don't want to see ISO
testing bugs and related stuff in #ubuntu-bugs either.
Since not everyone's responding to both the BugSquad and
ubuntu-quality lists, I've sent this response to both.
