* New imagelib name
** Surprising/interesting bugs we found:
*** JP
**** Security bug that was open since 2005
**** Startup crash that hadn't been touched in a long time {{bug|585921}}
**** Take notes about specific bugs for further review
*** Joe
**** Bugs that talk about code cleanups that are totally out of date
**** Benoit Jacob had an example: {{bug|395585}} - OOM bugs should maybe be part of a query for making them security-sensitive
**** The other thing that surprised Joe was the ability for people to make patches for some bugs while triaging
**** Be Bold - change things! They can always be unchanged later
*** Bas
**** Having a direct line to people was great, since one specific person is often significantly more efficient than others
**** Being able to shuffle bugs to others' queues would have been very handy
***** QA Contact - perhaps?
***** Joe to edit queries to include QA Contact = "me" so they get reassigned
** Another BugKill day on the 4th of November (another Friday)
