Thanks Andrew,
that just leaves the other point, if at all possible fix the minor bugs in
bugzilla whenever you do work on spells, or the bugs will just duplicate
themselves. I am trying to make the summaries explanatory when I reassign
bugs the the correct section, I also make a point of putting the spell name
in that summary, so a simple search will list them.
