[wildfly-dev] Call For Help (Testsuite)

[Jason Greene]

Ah yes duh. We have to do some Linux hacks to get IPv6 multicast to work on the loopback with 2 addresses, but that should work on EC2 as well. 

We'd have to get a large instance because we need more than 1 core to adequately test. So I'll have to ask around about budget.

If you submit a PR, and you see what looks like an intermittent failure, can you do some investigation and report your findings even if it is not your area? It would be awesome if you can report what you find to the mailing list, and rope in help.
