Obviously projects that have no bugs and no other issues woudln't be
part of the adoption process ----- the only ones that would qualify
would be bug riddled and no developer around.

If the project has active bugs that are not being dealt with that should
show the lack of active development not a stable project

There is always that possibility..

Ok so amend the adoption policy..........
1) Must have active bugs, active for more then 6 months, that have not
been dealt with by any project member. EG; bugs that cripple the addon
due to FF/TB version changes.

Excluded projects will be stable ones without any active bugs. We could
add a 3rd page that lists these projects. How ever maybe a trove map for
mozdev would be a better approach.
