To allow time for the 1.41 release to complete, the start of the Boost Bug sprint has been delayed until next Wednesday, November 18th.

That doesn't mean you can't work on bugs before that, though - just don't check fixes into svn until then.
Find bugs, reproduce them, generate patches - all of those are fine!

We started the last bug sprint with just over 800 open tickets.
We finished with about 720 open tickets.

Now (several months later) there are 854 open tickets.

Useful reports:
        Active tickets	 			https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/report/1
        Ticket counts by milestone	https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/report/21
        Ticket counts by component	https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/report/19
        Ticket counts by type		https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/report/20
        Ticket counts by owner		https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/report/18

With 1.41 about to go out the door, we've still got a _bunch_ of tickets that were "to be resolved" by earlier milestones:

Boost 1.36.0		101
Boost 1.37.0		45
Boost 1.38.0		64
Boost 1.39.0		89
Boost 1.40.0		139

That's more than half the active tickets!
I'm sure that some of these have been fixed, or no longer apply.
But which ones?
