I'll give it to this list outright. |

I have problems believing in QA competence when I read comments like these: |

You even blocked me out of the bug. I mean... wtf is happening here? I'm |
| 9 |
not even sure the list can read those bug comments to understand what I |
| 10 |
mean. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
I used to believe it's lack of manpower/time or even laziness, but I am |
| 13 |
not sure anymore. |

Funnily... the meeting summary of march is lost where you were supposed |
| 16 |
to vote on the tinderbox matter. I am not sure either if that is "by |
| 17 |
accident" anymore. I pinged you guys often enough. No one seems to have |
| 18 |
the logs anymore. |
| 19 |
|

Anyway, I had less trouble getting responses from the old QA team. When |
| 21 |
I ask you guys, I usually get one of these responses (or similar): |
| 22 |
* nothing, unless I ping you after 2 weeks again |
| 23 |
* "probably not in QAs scope" |
| 24 |
* "post on dev ML first, we don't know what to think" |
| 25 |
* "not sure if that's our business, appeal to council" |
| 26 |

Not sure what's worth QA if they don't have strong opinions and try to |
| 28 |
avoid to piss off people. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
I used to ask QA for guidance beforehand on delicate matters before I |
| 31 |
escalated elsewhere or chose a particular approach. That doesn't really |
| 32 |
work anymore, instead people expect me to fire up the bikeshedding |
| 33 |
dev-ML which is the worst place to get ideas and do constructive |
| 34 |
brainstorming. |

I expect infra to unblock bug 473 now. This is unacceptable. |
