you could use the new user defined tags to mark the bugs you are working
on, but I suppose you know it already.

While I agree with you tat there is no point in filling a bug asking the
maintainer of your favourite MUA to implement a way to make your mail
address and name blink in the emails while you read them I think this
bug is not of little use, only it's really hard to fix, you are right
that this need to be done upstream.

<rant>For example, due to this bug I can't install debian using CD-ROM
without taking especial measures, if we add that the NIC and the WLAN
didn't work also out of the box...</rant>

Yes, you are right, it seems thah SATA ATAPI isn't ready, but with my
hardware its enough to change in include/linux/libata.h
 
#undef ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI /* define to enable ATAPI support */ 
to 
#define ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI /* define to enable ATAPI support */

and recompile the Debian kernel. I can read/burn CDs and DVDs. So, its
enough for me at the moment. I'll try to close the bug when a kernel
that has ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI activated enters Debian if no one else do it.

Thanks.
