The reason I did it the way I did is that I wanted it to be
task-focused. You can look at all of those things as being different
types of testing, yes, but the problem with a category-based
organization like that is it may give the impression that, if you want
to take part in "testing", you should be doing *all of those things*. I
wanted to make it clear that you can just pick any single one of these
different activities and do it, you don't need to immediately start
getting involved in everything. I think, for the purposes of this page,
it makes more sense to look at, say, "creating test cases" and "testing
Fedora pre-releases" as separate tasks, not as part of one big group.

But perhaps you could do a draft of your idea in your Wiki space so we
can see how it would work?
