| 10 |

| 11 |
| CVS etc. A simpler quiz targetted at ensuring the arch |

| testers know what is expected of them would lower the |

| 14 |
| the ebuild quiz means you get people who quickly become |
| 15 |
| devs in their own right... |

The ebuild quiz isn't particularly difficult... If the proposed "write |
| 18 |
an ebuild for equizapp" question goes through then maybe they could be |
| 19 |
exempt from that until they need cvs access, but the main ebuild quiz |
| 20 |
just tests basic understanding. |
