That's simple.  Click on the "Priority" column and see the list sorted
by priority:

 
http://www.xcsoar.org/trac/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&type=defect&order=priority

Now if only people would fill "priority" in a way that would make
sense for us.  Not like this one:

 http://www.xcsoar.org/trac/ticket/1555
 "Need multitouch support for Android devices", "Priority: highest"

Tickets like this one are the reason we tend to ignore the "priority"
field.

I consider this spamming because this is not the place to discuss bug
reports.  We have a dedicated place for that (i.e. the bug tracker).

But if you feel it's necessary, we can create a new mailing list, for
announcing regressions, managed and moderated by you.  Anybody who's
interested may subscribe.

If you want bugs to be fixed quickly, come up with something that
saves developer's time, so they can spend more time on bug reports.
Recruit new developers[*], help us manage the bug tracker or the web
site, assign priorities, raise donations to buy test hardware for
developers[**], explain to people how they can extract a logcat, or
better: write manual pages, ...

There's a never-ending list of things *you* can do to accelerate
XCSoar development and bug fixes.

[* new volunteers may implement your favorite feature requests or fix
important bugs - convince somebody to spend time on your requests]

[** many bugs cannot be fixed because no developer owns the product
that fails, e.g. http://www.xcsoar.org/trac/ticket/2154 - there's
nothing we can do until we have this product]
