What we really need is someone to coordinate testing with the various
volunteers.  ie, someone to keep track of who is testing the platforms on
the test matrix, regressions on those platforms and the like.  If you could
tackle that, it would be greatly appreciated.

Generally we don't have a lot of trouble getting folks to run lots of code
through the compiler :-)  The tougher job is to keep track of the platforms
on the matrix and make sure they are properly regression tested and that all
regressions are fixed.
