I work as the Sysadmin for both the development and QA departments of a software development company. I support both teams equally. Recently I was asked for some ideas on how to improve inter-team communication.
First, what are some ways to improve the relationship between a development and QA team, from the developer's point of view?
Second, what are some things you look for from a System Administrator as far as interaction? Leave you alone? Email? IM? Personal office-time? How can I improve my relationship with developers?
