Ok. But these tests, or other, are something you  could do done this
alone already , I am sure. I would not want to repeat myself, but IF
YOU WOULD REALLY have a larger  user base larger ypu have to  publish
your work as a independent project. Otherwise I can not find correct,
pesonal opion anyway, to ask other distro OSS as Fedora to try your
project and also report their result. But YMMV, as eveyone else.

Best Regards
