Sorry for the double quote - somehow I didn't get the initial mail.

I have just substantially revised the wiki space for this event:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days/2009-02-19

I converted all the 'how to test' bits into a set of proper test cases,
expanded some stuff, replaced some duplicate instructions with links to
the appropriate pages, and generally (I hope) made the process a lot
clearer. It should be quite easy now to follow the cases and generate
data for your system. I've filled in a full set of data from my main
system (and comparison data from Mandriva), so you can follow that as a
template for filling in the results charts.

Thanks guys! The more data we have the better it is for Harald ;)
