As one of those newcomers, I thank you again for the great job you did
in conducting the marathon.

I share your comments on the process, but I want to add a tiny thought:
the all-together testing style left me wondering whether everybody else
was checking the same issues over and over (lots of people checking /opt
for a package) instead of splitting tasks to cover more ground.

I guess for the future I'll adopt a few packages and keep an eye on
them, makes more sense to me, though the idea of participating in the
marathon was indeed a good motivator to start testing.
