Hello.

Reading on the Roles page:

> Question about QA team = retired RMs have proven that they have the skills to QA patches. So, couldn't we say that they are members of the QA team? --Paul Poulain 04:30, 13 March 2013 (EDT)

I would say: Just apply, no hidden members :)

I would not support an automatic inclusion of former RMs in the QA team, but I can understand why others might. As the current RM, I suppose the proper thing to do is simply recuse myself from this question, so I will offer this commentary on it: whether or not I am declared a member of the QA team ex officio, I will not have time to volunteer for the 3.14 release release team.

Regards,
Jared
