Leave the rest open. Some will never be touched but some will be when someone encounters the same problem and finds the bug again. It's better to leave it open and unaddressed than to close it without giving it a fair look. As to time spent triaging, it's worth considering whether permissions could be opened up further. Right now, almost anyone can file a bug but few people can resolve and close them. I can't, for example, even when I see one that's clearly no longer relevant. :-( -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elh...@ibiblio.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
