Chris, any preferred days to come to the Bay Area for Browser testing activity?

• Quim, I might be headed north around the weekend of June 15, so the Friday before or Monday after might be good. I can be available other times as well.

Chris:

• Met with Rachel about a test plan/charter for VE tests; VE test automation spike is checked in and working; including James Forrester.
  • TODO: set soft deadline for test charter
• Groundwork on the new QA list, more information and publicity for that coming.
• Writing and deploying ULS tests; working through issues this exposes, particularly with behavior for anonymous users
