Boot floppies:
  At last check, the drivers disk was giving problems.

Multi-cd install:
  Untested, I don't know if anyone has even made an attempt at this one.
  We need to get some cd images available.

X problems:
  Do we have the recommends fields correct now?  Others have already
  reported the problems with xdm.

That C++ linker error that generated all the traffic a few weeks back:
  Have all the packages been fixed/recompiled yet?

Mirror problems:
  Is ftp.debian.org synching master properly now?

I'm sorry for not checking all these myself.  It's just that time of year.
