Well said.  There are people who care.  A few of us have biin working  
through
the bugs.  I wish more people were. (I'm stuck on a fairly hairy one  
myself.)

Regardless of what tool we use, we need to be committed to not
letting bug reports languish in the collector.

Personally, I'd like to have a feature freeze until we've cleane dup
*all* of the outstanding bugs, not just the critical ones.
