I can put some time this weekend into closing out old bugs, however, before doing so, I wanted to make sure that our messaging is crystal clear. What I had been doing for kernel bugs is placing them in NEEDINFO_REPORTER and asking if the problem still existed, etc after manually reviewing the bugs (some I changed to a current release because it was mentioned in comments, but not in the version metadata). However, this won't scale - there's no way that I or anybody else can reasonably review 3600 bugs for ones that are incorrectly tagged. This leaves us with ~9000 bugs (F7, F8, and rawhide) to deal with (still a monumental task). I propose doing something similar with rawhide bugs that haven't been touched in ~6 months, not sure of the number of those, haven't looked yet. Here's the proposed comment to WONTFIX these. I want to get the most input possible before doing this: <begin> Hello, Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. Unfortunately, this version of Fedora has reach end-of-life and is no longer maintained. Please refer to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LifeCycle for an explanation of the Fedora lifecycle policy. We therefore regret the necessity of closing this bug report WONTFIX. Please upgrade to a currently maintained release of Fedora, currently either Fedora 7 or Fedora 8, and attempt to reproduce this bug. If the bug still exists, feel free to re-open this bug report, changing the version accordingly, or file a new bug report (you can use the 'Clone as Bug' link at the top of this bug report in order to preserve the content of this bug in the new one). We regret any inconvenience that this may cause you, and thank you for your continued support of Fedora! <end> I propose starting with FC6, since that recently reached EOL and people would be understanding about it (hopefully). Comments/thoughts/suggestions/flames welcome. _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
