This was also a reminder for all the other QA members.. :)
I could spend a lot more time on coding if I there were
more active persons going through the evergrowing number
of reports. There are still a LOT reports in there which
are either bogus or fixed already. Also, marking those
you can reproduce and which you think are bugs will help
developers to see easier which reports are worth to look at.

Yeah, yeah..I'm still building the basic structure here.
After I get something simple and working ready, I will
commit it to CVS and then others can join the effort. :)
