Eric: would you like me to add you to that project on SF so you can create/maintain this page yourself?

[...]Hi, while we have no real kernel maintainer right now (I assume Jeremy can at most find enough time to upload patches submitted by others, not for doing coding / testing himself), I think it would be good to review some old bugs before we move on to do new optimizations. Of course now that Arkady already has optimized things: If no new bugs get introduced those patches can of course be added.
But I think we should focus on a bit of bug testing and fixing now for a while. I hope there are people on the list who can test some of the issues (i.e. have the affected type of software / hardware around!).
Bugzilla URLs all look like http://www.freedos.org/bugs/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9999 where 9999 is the number of the bug in question (no leading zeroes). You can also use the http://www.europa.sp.nl/campagne2004/waakhond.shtml page to get a list of all bugs (just select a "sort by" and submit the form as-is) and http://www.freedos.org/bugs/bugzilla/ (just enter a bug number - you actually can NOT enter search terms in the latter form!
Now for the bugs. If you are able to test a bug, please do so.
Maybe we could put a technote online with this list or something? Some of the abovementioned bugs are very exotic, so we may have to "search the world" for testers who can reproduce the described bug triggering conditions... and most normal people will not read the whole bugzilla system when they find the FreeDOS homepage and have a glance at the project status.
