[Python-Dev] Deprecating 2.2 old bugs

[Facundo Batista]

Going on with the old bugs checking, here are the results for 2.2.
When I'll finish this will be put in an informational PEP.

When I verified the bug, I filled two fields:

- Summary: the same subject as in SF
- Group: the bug's group at verifying time.
- Bug #: the bug number
- Verified: is the date when I checked the bug.
- Action: is what I did then.

If the bug survived the verification, the next two fields are
applicable (if not, I put a dash, the idea is to keep this info easily
parseable):

- Final: is the action took by someone who eliminated the bug from
that category (closed, moved to Py2.4, etc).
- By: is the someone who did the final action.

So, here's the info...
