Testing Team Meeting – Mar 05 2012

Had the first QUnit IRC meeting this week, going through most open tickets to figure out what to focus on. Some, like simulating events, still need a lot more thinking and input, others will get addressed over the next days/weeks. Will do a followup meeting, probably at the same time (Thursday, noon EST).
