Thanks for doing this. You could have used the already set up
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bug_Day_TODO page though instead of
your user page.
That might need a bit of cleaning up but if you're willing to transfer
properly the ones on your page there i will help with this if you lack
the time to invest doing the clean up yourself.
