Well, it appears that Adobe is hosting a Bug Quash: “An event where the community comes together with one goal in mind… To quash as many bugs in one day as humanly possible. Don’t just complain, do something about it.”

This is quite an interesting idea — and you too can take part from anywhere around the world by signing up and interacting through Adobe Connect.
