I'm sorry to see you say this. I too hoped that this project could be 
"positive and helpful", as you say, and to some extent I think it has been. 
But it hasn't, unfortunately, gained a lot of support from lots of 
developers, and we haven't made much noise ourselves (personally I've been 
too busy with various political activism projects). So after the announcement 
we lost all momentum.

If you do leave the list, then please attend my talk at the aKademy, where I 
hope to breathe some life back into the Quality Teams project. If we can get 
a reasonable number of developers onboard, I think we can make this list 
something more than yet-another-support-forum. In particular, we need to 
persuade more developers in charge of modules to:

- Create clear tasklists, perhaps using the JJ tag in bugzilla
- Assign people to this list from their teams and make everyone in the team 
aware of those people's roles
- Generally make more calls on web / in email / in real-world meetings for 
people to join their teams

From our point of view, we can then:

- promote the quality teams more in the media
- help developers create and maintain their quality teams
- actively seek new ways of getting users involved

In my opinion, it's worth trying to make the Quality Teams project work.

Regards,
Tom
