[...] if the bug isn't open to discussion, I close it. I think
that's fairly common across Debian. If it's tagged wontfix but still
open, that generally means one of two things: either it's still open
for discussion, but the maintainers are indicating their current
thinking on it, or it's a commonly-reported false positive (from the
maintainer's perspective) and they're leaving it open so that people
will see it in the bug list and see that someone else already
reported it.
Seems like a good summary to me.
We have 1000s of bugs. Closing ones that are never going to go anywhere
is essential.
