these are the items I captured from fridays usergroup;

I) next release will have the following testers to help out release
team (who will contact them):

	Henry (Dan's mate): windows vista

	Dan: windows xp

	Adam: opensolaris

	Jim: mac osx

	Lief: linux

	Stefan M: ubuntu
	
        Andy Bunce:windows

This test cycle e.g. will ask people to install, capture comments,
then iterate that may run over a day or so.
We need to manage this process to reduce churn as well as capture
things consistently. I would recommend
that testing consists of

* that we nominate and communicate a release manager as 'hub' between
testers and developers

* testers should be on  #existdb IRC channel to facilitate comms and
ensure everyone is in sync

* that results are captured as bugs in bug tracker (or is this too cumbersome?)


II) It was suggested to expose more of the team city build results ...
Lief to investigate public Team city page ?


III) I had various discussions about integrating a unit test suite ...
Jim (e.g. me) will follow up with integrating into trunk with
documentation
