I think we do. We have someone assigned to QA in Zaqar and that has
worked pretty well for us. Malini has been taking care of tempest,
devstack patches and syncing with OpenStack's QA team.

Her efforts there have been a key on getting Zaqar in the gate and
making sure we're up-to-date with the latest changes happening in our QA.

+1 for letting the PTL take care of this.
