 Tuesday is our call conf day and other people have reported that they have
more confs during that day. Suggest Jun 2.

 And testing, Fedora has a number of test cases already written, but
I guess that just a few are qemu specific:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2010-04-08_Virtualization

 We could link those and write our own, or at least list the major
features to be tested..

 Of course we could have a different day for testing too, but I think
this is a way to get everyone busy.

 Can't this be automated?
