This week's Hug Day will focus on Ubiquity! The goal of today's bug day will be to hunt down the bugs related to installing Ubuntu!
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's background to green 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 hugged.

During hug days you can also do 5-A-Day for this one you can do the following in order to tag your work on the hug day:
- 5-a-day --add-tag hugday-20080731
- Add bugs to 5-a-day as usual
