We should probably talk off-list, because the example of AFTv5 is a red flag to me that says volunteer QA would likely not be useful to my team. It is the kind of project perhaps most dissimilar from how E3 operates. But it sounds like much of my objections are E3-specific here, rather than applicable to all use cases.
