Subject: Warning/Oops report of the week of September 16th, 2008

This is the first report where I've dropped oopses that happened to 2.6.25 or earlier kernels.
I've also changed the format of the report to split it in "fixed" and "not yet fixed" sections;
I hope that makes the report more useful for developers.



This week, a total of 1730 oopses and warnings have been reported,
compared to 626 reports in the previous week.
