I don't think this is about fun. There are people getting paid by
Intel for this, aren't they? Would you like it if your boss could
have a look at a list of mistakes you made in your job? Man, I sure
am glad there's no list with *my* mistakes! Yes, I know that bugs
are perfectly normal in such projects, no need to be ashamed. But
maybe their boss doesn't know that?
Just speculating here...
