Re: Testing TF / FediTest

Sincere apologies for missing this, I was OOO most of last week.  The
slides and helpful and I've linked to these minutes from the
/swicg/meetings/README.md for future reference.  Feel free to use the
mailing list as often as you want to make announcement or entice developers
to make those "final commitments" and drivers for the test infra!
