Re: Introducing myself
Hi Cory, welcome to QA! having got this far I know you will have read the wiki area [1] The more people who can test on the more computers, the better the releases can be. If you are about when the the next meeting is [2] then do please attend, it will give you a good idea of what we discuss. Also for more immediate answers, please do use the IRC channel [3] Regards, Phill.
