More info:

Wikimedia's Gerrit instance was recently upgraded to a new version, hence bug reports about Gerrit need retesting. We will be focusing on upstream issues that have been fixed with the recent upgrade and we'll comment on bugs that need status updates. Gerrit's upstream bugtracker is located at http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/list

For issues that have been fixed, the upstream release notes might be helpful:
