RC bugs 2012/32
this was a weird RCBW week for me.
although we are not that far into the freeze yet, the amount of
easy-enough-for-me-to-fix RC bugs on UDD
is already rather low. – besides the not very impressive list below, I
at least tried to do some housekeeping on some bugreports (tagging,
reassigning, forwarding, …).
