These claims are inaccurate. And it appears to me unfair considering all the amount of time I personally spend on old bug triage; instead of doing other (funner?) things. My workflow dealing with old bugs is: pick one and read the report (and the complete thread, if any), then, 1. the report provides enough information for reproducing; I try to reproduce myself and report more info, and then I try to collaborate for fixing or closing. 2. the report does not provide enough information to understand what the bug is about or to find a way to reproduce; then I ask more info =E2=80=93 sometimes my reply is even the first one, then, a) an answer is back so it is similar as #1. =20=20=20=20 b) no answer after 2 or more weeks, so I try to determine if the report is actionable and if the next action is fine-grained enough to be doable. After 2 or more weeks, I ask again. Therefore, if a bug report after 2 or 3 years is not commented, especially after 2 or more attempts to understand and ask for the next steps without an answer back by the whole community, what could be the action other than just close the report. Ultimately, nothing is perfect and people are doing their best with their resource at hand; at least, I do my best with the resource at my hands. I would be more than happy if more people would try to sort, classify or fix the old bugs. Maybe, you will join the effort ? I stop now the discussion in this thread since I do not see what we are discussing. Cheers, simon
