Here we have a sampling of bugs to work on for Hug Day. After you have triaged or fixed a bug put your name in the last column and set the row background to a green color by adding lightgreen in the first cell of the column after "background-color:" and before ";". This will let people know that the bug in that row has been worked on.
All Bugs
If they deal with a distribution upgrade should be tagged so they indicate what they were trying to upgrade from and to i.e. feisty2gutsy, edgy2feisty or dapper2edgy.
If they deal with an upgrade using media (CD-ROM or DVD) they should be tagged as cdrom-upgrade.
Keep an eye out for duplicates of bug 153889 in Kubuntu where Gutsy indicates that a distribution upgrade is available and Feisty does not indicate that a distribution upgrade is available.
