Excellent, anything you can do to help will be much appreciated.

The tracker is using Django so I'd suggest you start by familiarising
yourself with that.

debian-qa is the relevant team and Raphael Hertzog is the primary
person who has been working on the tracker since Marko Lalic finished
his GSoC project.

I tried to mark regressions with the word regression in the bug
subject but there are definitely more. In addition a long time ago I
compared the code between the PTS and the tracker and made a TODO list
of the differences. I tried to transfer some of these to the BTS but
never found time to complete it. If you would like to look at my list
and do another comparison between the PTS and the tracker and add
relevant things to the BTS that would be great.
