If you want, you or someone else could help by checking the Debian bugs on the package though
Ok sounds good. Did you want me to just contact you with a list of bugs you can close out, or should I apply to become a Debian maintainer so that I can close them out?
You don't have to be a Debian maintainer to access the Debian BTS. It works on the trust system, anyone at all can change (including closing) a bug on any package. This used to be a disadvantage when spammers started adding xxx-close@bugs.debian.org addresses to their database, but I think they just added a spam filter, there's still no real restrictions as far as I know. So if you want to close the bugs yourself, you can. But you can also send me a list if would rather have me close them anyway.

I am not sure this is the best way but I would suggest that for each Debian bug in the you should start a bug in Wine's Bugzilla. (That is assuming the bug is actualy in wine in wine of course) you should provide a url link to the debian bug in wine and vice versa.
Ok, I'll create bugzilla bugs for any that arn't already in there.
Thanks.
