Done. We now have about 300 submitted/open bugs either without
milestone, or with milestone 1.0.

Would any of developers care to split the bugs between us? Not assign
bugs per se, but just so we don't step over each other, trying to fix
the same bugs. I'd be interested in hearing suggestions for how to do
this. Here's a suggestion:

 o assign all open 1.0 bugs to " "
 o let people assigne bugs to themselves that they want to look at

Thus making the assignment field actually have a meaning.

I don't have much time for AbiWord the next month, so I'd really hate to
find out I've been working on the same bug as someone else.
