Re: Bugtracker cleanup/update

[Han-Wen Nienhuys]

Thanks for this work, Valentin!

The status is that we have 97 defects left, of which one regression,
and one marked high. After fixing these, I'll go through the list once
more to pick the low-hanging fruit.  Then, from a bugs perspective, we
are ready to release 2.12.

What's that status for the docs, Graham?
