Thanks for putting this together but . . .

It's taking me forever to slog through it because I'm really not
grokking the ordering and the selection by date pulls in a lot of cruft.

Is there a way to limit the list to core issues that we can actually
fix? For example, we have no control over how dev1fanboy administers
his wiki and those entries (and other similar ones) add a lot of 'noise'
to the review process.

The link that was a search result of the Issues forum for "installer" -
https://dev1galaxy.org/search.php?search_id=1995982034 - brought up more
relevant info imo.

I need to do something else for a while . . .
