And how will the community test those fixes in a proper way?
Are the special test tools needed (yeah, I know they exist)
or will 'continuous use' count as testing?
Well, I'm not on the 'test list', maybe I should subscribe to that
one too.
The testing will be based on the scope and content of the bug. For a
simple fix to a utility, it may be sufficient to simply roll your own
handmade regression tests. For more complicated changes, such as those
to libraries, kernel, or system interfaces, your sponsor will help you
get the testing resources that you need. For the near future, this will
likely involve you providing BFU archives and having your sponsor submit
them to various test runs.
If you're interested in how we plan to make testing more accesible, or
have suggestions about what needs to be done, you should definitely
subscribe to the test discussion list.
