I remember we did a big push in the War on Orange maybe three (or four?)
years ago. We could do it again; calling out to everybody to take
intermittent tests in the modules they're familiar with and start fixing
them. Personally I'd happily dedicate a chunk of my time to doing it for
a couple of weeks; having to re-trigger stuff every single time I make a
try run drives me nuts.
