To report a bug, please use the bug tracker.

This page is intended to allow those developers without the authority to change the status of bugs on bug tracker to point out bugs that have been fixed, or other suggested status changes, to those who do have authority to update bug tracker.  The goal is that this will be a short list, which is easier for the core developers to scan than the entire bug tracker list.  (N/C means no change.)
This page is intended to allow those developers without the authority to change the status of bugs on bug tracker to point out bugs that have been fixed, or other suggested status changes, to those who do have authority to update bug tracker.  The goal is that this will be a short list, which is easier for the core developers to scan than the entire bug tracker list.  Currently, it is just Lachlan's thoughts on the 50 or so "Patch submitted" bugs.
