I think most of the bugs were transferred from the old bugzilla to the wiki,
but it would be good to check all the ones that were still open haven't
slipped through the net. I can host the relevant old version of bugzilla
locally (do you know what version it was?) if Matt can make the database
dump available to me, then transfer the bugs we still need out.

Either way I'd close it, preferring a list hosted elsewhere (I'm thinking
google groups) if we want such a list.

True, but you can set a default CC for all bugs, which has much the same
effect.
