I'm also glad I can welcome you to our team!
What a surprise you already have experience as Mozilla volunteer! The
only thing I can append to Florian's "quick guide :-)" is our flowchart:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/0/06/Prioritizing_Bugs_Flowchart.jpg
. This flowchart we use to determine which priority the bug has. This is
not a this-is-the-only-correct-priority-to-give-it, but with a little
logical thinking of course :-).
You can find me and others at the qa-chatroom at
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=libreoffice-qa and the mailing
list. If you have a question, don't hesitate :-).
Nice to have you in our team!
Kind regards,
Joren

Thanks!
I already have the Server GUI installed, as I needed it to install the
4.0.0.1 rc for the docs team.
This wasn't too much of a takeoff, and I knew most of how to do QA-ing
from my time as a Mozilla volunteer.

Hi,
I want to give you a warm welcome to the QA team....
Please keep in mind, that QA is something like a never-ending
story....
So a few things right at the beginning:
1) We have a QA channel at freenode (#libreoffice-qa)
2) we have a biweekly call on friday
3) You may start with 4.0 bugs:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=REOPENED&version=4.0.0.0.alpha0%2B%20Master&version=4.0.0.0.alpha1&version=4.0.0.0.beta1&version=4.1.0.0.alpha0%2B%20Master&version=4.0.0.0.beta2&version=4.0.0.1%20rc&version=4.0.0.2%20rc&version=4.0.0.3%20release&version=4.0.1.1%20rc&version=4.0.1.2%20rc&product=LibreOffice&list_id=245941
If you are on Windows, you might want to have a look at this:

Don't hesitate to ask if you need help...
If you triage a bug, please insert yourself into the QA contact
field...
(I hope, that this wasn't too much for the takeoff at QA :)
Liebe Grüße, / Yours,
Florian Reisinger

Hi.
I am Kieran, and I have been active at lo-documentation and
lo-users for a month or two now, and have now decided to join QA,
as I feel that won't take up too much more. I am posting this as
an introduction to myself so that you all know who I am and don't
wonder "who is this guy" whenever I post.
I have already posted a couple of bugs at FDO and have done a bit
of triaging today as well. I did do a bit of QA-ing at Mozilla a
few months ago on bugzilla, but after having stopped using their
products I found it to be a bit boring, so a few months later I
took a look at the LO Get Involved page, and as I've said, joined
the Docs team and have decided to branch out slightly more.
One note I would like to make, though - the page on the LO
website only mentions the developers mailing list, whilst the TDF
wikipage also mentions this one - a correction could be made
there so that they don't have to subscribe to a second list, or
think "is this the same one?" and end up not subscribing to here
as well. Maybe list both at LO, and maybe just this one at
TDFwiki? If this was intentional by you, then don't worry about
it, I was just thinking that new users may get a bit confused by
2 links in 2 different places.
