Summary of it, is now at the wiki.


Thanks for taking the time to clarify (what was not clear to me)

 But that is wrong, at least lazy.

No, it is not wrong. The overview of past issues is historic and really 
only for informational purposes. The page is about _daily_ builds, which 
means that the only thing users should normally be interested in is if an 
issue is valid for _today_'s images or not.
