Is that an answer or a question? Anyone who wants to search the database can do so and cover _closed_ tickets in addition to open ones. I don't see the need to keep tickets open (or clone them) in cases where a status such as WONTFIX, RAWHIDE or UPSTREAM is appropriate. > I could be wrong of course, please correct me if I am.

Not just for pkg maintainers. Not every ticket immediately is a todo item (e.g. some only track defects till something definite is found out), but those tickets that are answered by the pkg maintainer with some action may get _closed_, with the pkg maintainer having the final word about whether there will be an update. Reporters (and potential contributors), who think they know better, are free to propose a feasible solution. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
