But we just struggle to find the time. They are useful for developers/maintainers because if a newcomer shows up, you can just tell him "look at all the opened wishes, pick one and work on it" (which we do regularly). It's also useful when you have a free weekend and want to work on some of those opened reports. Which you wouldn't be able if they would be all closed. They are also useful for users so they don't get reported again and again. > And if there are bug reports that from a developer's perspective should > not be > auto-closed, then we could attach a custom tag 'no-auto-close' or so to > the bug. > Then this script could ignore the tagged ones. > Yeah, this would be great. > Comments?
