Bringing TPM do DVD in such a spectacular way can only be a good thing. If you don't like the movie, you shouldn't even be wasting your time reading this thread.
First off let me clarify something:
"The greatest quality assurance for software is the developer."
BZZT! Wrong, try again.
Development and QA should work together in order to create quality software, not one or the other so let's stop this useless bickering. Rock stable software (whether free or commercial) comes from proper documentation and requirements from the beginning. It also includes a structured and controlled test cycle and this my friends is usually a combination of QA and Development.
Other than that misunderstanding, I can see how OSS would benefit from QA. Being a former UNIX QA engineer/manager now NT QA engineer (bleh), it's great to see the OSS community is contemplating embracing Quality Assurance.
Too many times in my experience, QA has been brought into projects when the project is nearly done. That drives me nuts. QA should be in the project from the very beginning, discussing requirements, planning, and scheduling. Throughout the project, QA would be involved in CONTROLLING changes proposed to the project. As most of us know, most projects fail because of too much change from the initial plan. Finally QA would be involved in making sure the project is completed and implemented. This is a basic project life cycle my friends, and note QA is involved (along with development) nearly everywhere.
The people who believe that QA analyst/engineers are those who couldn't make it in development, I'd like to shed some light on your opinion. Sorry, but a majority of the QA people I've worked have had greater than or equal skillsets to their development counterparts. Most times it is the QA person who finds the error in the code and lets the developer know. So lets squash that myth right now. Good QA analysts/engineers are in QA because they want to be, not because they are forced to be.
While we are on the subject, OSS needs to come up with automated testing software! (Winrunner/Loadrunner , Visual Test, uhh *cha-ching*) It would be simply beautiful to see OSS embrace QA Software. (I'm getting excited typing about it)
I would gladly offer my services to the OSS community for QA. I have a fairly strong technical programming background, but my heart lies in QA. If anyone wants any assistance with any OSS project, feel free to contact me.

Seriously, Congrats Hemos.. may God bless you and your new household.:)
"I am Gill Bates of the MicroSloth clan! I have many style sheets! Would you like to try my IE 5 stylee???"
"I'd like to try your IE 5 style, lets begin then!"
*HAWWP* *AAAKP* *HYAHP* *DYAAHP*
Your *DYAAHP* has performed an illegal operation. It is recommended that you restart your stylee.
"Darn you *Lip movement* This is not over!! I will train in the arts of Ween Tew Kay *ha ha ha hahaha ha ha ha*. I will avenge my crashing by representing Microsloth with more abnormal extensions!!!" *POOF*

I couldn't have said it better myself.
I find it funny that in the middle of www.officeclippy.com's movie, IE 5.5 crashed. Is this a sign of things to come? :)

Looks like I got one near me. (Jupiter,FL/Digicom/802.11) Not that I'll really utilize it in the near future but cool nonetheless.
The acronym GAWD rox btw. :)

I usually buy DVDs because I want better quality than VHS. My question is why bother recording your DVDs to VHS?? I don't get it.
