Ah, great. Thanks for that link! I've added it to the page. We also have 
an application testing page for Breezy:  
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyAccessibilityStatus  (now not so relevant 
since Breezy has been released). We want to make a more structured 
testing plan for Dapper though.

The page I posted earlier is not so much to test the actual 
applications, but rather to increase awareness among developers and 
general users. A challenge if you like.
