I know folks are desperate to close this bug for good, but I'd like to point out I just tried the link I mentioned in comment #32 above
https://launchpad.net/~[username]/+hwdb-submissions
and I can STILL see the hwdb entries I contributed years ago. SO the data still seems to be around in some form.
The Checkbox project is still around, but I haven't used it lately, so I don't know if it still inserts data into launchpad / hwdb anymore.
