To please Anca I propose:
* All Rosy Day
* Bisounous Day (special for French people)

:)

<story of the day>
BTW Anca did you know that in English when you have regression in your code and 
you test to verify that you don't have them anymore, it's called Regression 
Testing in English. And in French it's called "Tests de Non-regression". So not 
our fault if English language has negativity built in to it ;)
</story of the day>

More seriously we can just add the "Fixing" suffix and we're good:
* Violation Fixing Day
* Deprecation Fixing Day

Thanks
