Hello, yeah, I had very similiar idea (Symfony inspired me [1]). I also think that 4252 open bugs is quite too much and this number doesn't really reflect actual ammount of work to do. As you said, many bugs are critically outdated, some of them are probably duplicates and so on... I don't have many skills but I'll try to look at as many web/doc bugs, as I can, during this short holiday break. Cheers, Maciej.

I'm not saying the job we do (my self included) is not being done well enough, but currently we have over 4.1k and a lot of those are old feature requests, or bugs going as far back as to PHP4.

I know we all spend our free time to contribute to the project and we would rather spend time on making new features and fixing popular issues and a lot of our resources are shifted towards PHP7. Is there any momentum for lowering that number, I myself will try to resolve, close those I can, maybe we can close issues for extensions we no longer bundle or issues we had no response to for 1 year or 6 months+, if they are common issues we will surely get bumped about them.

Hello guys, the work is going, number of open bugs slowly decreases. Meanwhile, I have sent a reminder[1] to all manual translations MLs, asking doc contributors for closing pending bugs. In best scenario, this should result in about next 40 bugs closed, as they are really easy to fix. One related thought. Perhaps someone with DB access, could delete all reports marked as Spam. I doubt they are removed automatically and I'm pretty sure there are bunch of them, cluttering database. Maciej.
