+1. Adding a mailing list is not exactly the hardest part of getting
a formal QA effort going. Moreover, if the previous rationale for having
pgsql-testing was that it was a place where newbies could feel sheltered
while posting bug reports, how are the existing subscribers going to
relate to what Josh is now suggesting? Repurposing this list for that
usage seems entirely inappropriate.
