I am a bit concerned that our # of bugs from 2011 jumped a lot, I'm not
sure if there's a bug with FDO - before I think we had 11 bugs from
2011, now we have a lot more than that.
For some (but only for some!) of these “new” UNCONFIRMED bugs from 2011,
I am responsible. I have already explained this. A few days ago, I wrote
to the QA list:
While browsing all NEW bugs for Mac OS X, I have noticed quite some

Let me add that I referred here not to bugs which had already faced some
discussion, but only to “virgin” bug reports who had never received any
attention by bug wranglers or developers, and which therefore just slept
in the database, hidden by the warm blanket of status NEW (and probably,
given the huge number of bugs, would have slept there forever!).
Setting their status back to UNCONFIRMED has the advantage that sooner
or later some bug wrangler will stumble over these reports and do what
is necessary to do, and then (if they are still reproducible and
important) will CC the developer(s) about them.
Of course, I will try to re-visit and test these bugs myself, I just
can’t do everything at once ;-)
Best regards,
Roman
