I would much appreciate if you stop hijack this thread with irrelevant
topics. Less important now but doing such things on the 7 release day was
not the best idea ever.

It could be acceptable if the qa part of the thing was not totally ignore
despite numerous reminder.

Last but not least, it seems there is a lack of knowledge and up-to-date
information about what is done where and why. Informing yourself would kill
90% of this argument. Or ask in doubt.
