Hmmm, the name change seems to imply something slightly different, to
me.  I had hoped that the TestingTeam (in addition to direct testing
of builds) would coordinate usability testing either themselves, or
reach out to many volunteers who have been interested.  However,
BugSquad seems like entirely the wrong name for that effort, and might
not be found at all by someone coming in from the outside looking to
help.  How can we reconcile this?

PS.  In general, BugSquad sounds like the people handling the pest
problem: triaging, generating reports, etc; not those in charge of
finding bugs.  But maybe that's just me.  I must apologize, of course,
for questioning, since I wasn't present at the meeting to hear the
arguments from both sides. ;)
