These lists are great.  Now, does anyone have a list of what bugs they are
supposed to fix?

Also, I'd like to recommend psk5 to anyone who uses X.  It's absolutely
essential.  It gives you a big performance boost.

On the subject of APRs, I don't think your experience in Oz is any worse
than ours.  I usually get a snail-mail ack in a few weeks.  I have yet to
get an actual reply to any APR I have filed.  After using Apollos since
1983, I filed my first APR on March 3 of this year and am still waiting for
an answer.  Just to be fair, I should point out that it was a pretty low
priority (plot(1) command doesn't work).
