We should go through them one by one and decide what to do with them,
then. I'd welcome the help, from anyone. These are the bugs that need
checking:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&order=id&col=id&col=summary&col=milestone&col=status&col=type&col=severity&col=keywords&milestone=1.6.x&milestone=1.6.10&desc=1

That's not how I'd like to record things. Some bugs that get fixed in
trunk we may not know if they will be fixed in branch or not, and at
what point if so, so we will not able to set a specific milestone. See
the other message in this thread about BRANCH_2_0_EXP, or just wait for
my real message about that.
