I've been doing this a little bit at a time for a while. I just wanted
to check base and make sure all on the same page. For starters, here's
a search of all bugs not touched in 6 months:
http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=Wine&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr&status_whiteboard=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time&field0-0-0=days_elapsed&type0-0-0=greaterthan&value0-0-0=180
Which is the main list I work from for triaging old bugs. Here's
another link with bugs that have a download available:
http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=Wine&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr&status_whiteboard=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time&field0-0-0=days_elapsed&type0-0-0=greaterthan&value0-0-0=180&field0-1-0=keywords&type0-1-0=allwordssubstr&value0-1-0=download

Furthermore, what criteria are we using for considering a bug
abandoned? I've been closing bugs that have had a lingering
question/request (e.g., requested a log/test) but received no reply in
6 months.

Lastly, how long are we trying to do this over? I try to limit my
testing/requests so as to not spam everyone too much, but if we go
through and verify all these old bugs, it's going to be _a lot_ of
bugzilla activity. Is everyone prepared for/okay with that?
