The header text shown above each query seemed to match that for each custom search, other than the text "D2" and "D1 & D2" which was added. After reading through the other posts it sounds like a general triage is in order to determine the status of the flag marked in the Version category for the D1-related bugs.

If you define "D" as meaning "current D" or "D2" and "D1" as "old D," even though D1 has current use, then this information would be clearer. The numbers for the current versions are more relevant to most people.

Take a look at #10217 as an example. So? Then change the version to D1 only. No, this won't work, because you actually have two separate issues, one for D1 and one for D2, one fixed and the other open. eg the changelog is generated from the list of RESOLVED FIXED bugs, and won't pick up ones that changed status. Focus should be on actually fixing bugs, not some feelgood numbers coming out of the bug tracker stats.

It's not necessarily about the numbers. It's the fact that now, the project is 100% D2, 0% D1, and the D1 bugs are getting in our way. In particular, since D1 is not supposed to be supported, it makes little sense to support bug tracking for it. It's noise and nothing more. I think it would make more sense instead to have a good wiki/ddoc page that clearly documents know issues in D1 that won't get fixed, how they are triggered, and how to work around them. IMO, once properly documented and identified, then the bug can simply be closed as "won't fix".

Honestly, the first time I took a look at D I was like "wait, is this a programming language or a testbed for some strange compiler?" :P Restrict your search for open bugs to "D2" and "D1 & D2" and you'll be fine.

Just deleting them would be a horrible disservice. Marking as "WONTFIX" sounds reasonable to me. After all, since support got dropped, "won't be fixed" sounds realistic.

I think leaving them open with hope it will be fixed when it likely will never happen is also a disservice. Tell me, are you planning on accepting patches for D1 phobos ever? -Steve

Last time I asked about this, it was argued that D1 bugs should remain in case "someone" wants to fix them. I'm against this because D1 is supposedly unsupported, and no one appears to be fixing D1 bugs anyway. I think they should be closed as WONTFIX with a quick comment to say that D1 is unsupported.

Ideally the D1 portion would be WONTFIX, and the D2 part would be WORKSFORME/FIXED/etc. Since we can't actually do that, I think we should just discard the D1 information and give it the appropriate status for D2. After all, we're not going to fix the bug for 2.061 or 2.062 or 2.063 etc either, but we won't mark it WONTFIX because of that. Hm... there didn't seem to be any indication that it was D2 related.
