A LOT of that is because there are a LOT of packages waiting for testing
that people just plainly don't have interest in.  Looking at
http://www.netcore.fi/pekkas/buglist-rhl73.html, I see 95% of cruft that
makes it difficult to focus on the 4 or 5% that I care about.  Do we
really need to be releasing a mozilla for rh73?  

Additionally, take the pending/not-pending kernel that is held up.  Look
at it's bugzilla report and then let me know what it's waiting on.  (do
this without beating your head against a wall, taking aspirin, or other
drugs).

The process isn't broke, the process just sadly isn't easy to be
involved with.

Some things on http://www.netcore.fi/pekkas/buglist-rhl73.html are also
not apparently correct (or maybe bugzilla is incorrect).  Take this
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=152827 for
instance.  Is it just a RH9 problem?  what about this one:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=152792  is it only
RH9 too?

Here's my predicament: I can test RH73 packages used in a "locked-down"
server environment.  So, what do I need to test?
