I'd like to correct you on this point.

I can and do periodically go through the massive list of ancient bugs
against X.  It's just too much for me to handle.  In many cases there is
too little information in the bug report for me to reproduce it (or in the
case of server bugs, I don't have the hardware to reproduce it).

And in many cases they're simply upstream bugs that haven't been fixed yet.

I am doing my best with the X bug list, and I am well aware of its size and
the age of some of the bugs on it.

I do *NOT* need a reminder.  There is no way I will ever forget.
