If we DO have a group of people who can (on the long run) predictably dedicate an amount of their time and are capable to do this - all the better !
Fully agree. Having a group of dedicated admins is a good thing to start things off. Who knows, maybe down the road, a paid position would be warranted.

The Testing concept was created by the community and having apps piling up in the queue simply looks bad on maemo.org and discourages developers.

The admins could become the de facto point men for testing related help/questions and perhaps well-positioned for "recruiting"/"mentoring" testers. All that is required is a group of dedicated individuals.
