The "Most Annoying Bugs" is short reference maintained by developers and 
community testers, whoever can find time to put information on the wiki. 

It is short reference of often reported bugs in bugzilla.novell.com and main 
use is to help openSUSE users/testers not to report bugs that are already 
reported few times, but to join effort to resolve bug in one place. Therefore 
format: <bug number>  <description>  <workaround (if known)> . 

Creating entry on the wiki is not a holly script, so anyone missing it can 
create wiki page, add reference it in the "Most Annoying Bugs".
