Patch needs Sponsor - List of easily NMUed RC bugs
Hi,
I went through the RC bug list and collected Bugs with trivial patches
and sorted them a bit. They realy don't need much work so if you have
a minute pick one. If you want to NMU any of them check the
then currently claimed bugs (url under claimed bugs).
So here we go:
