Very often this status is an issue by itself. It only serves to hide the less interesting junk to discover what's left behind, but when people continue to respond to resolved issues nobody sees that. And if you block them from continuing to feed a closed issue, it's even worse as it forces them to reopen a new one that causes duplication. With e-mails you can respond to an old message if you want and keep all the participants. And it does happen. > If you remove bugzilla I'll never use lore.kernel.org, I promise.

You've already claimed that and we've also told you that it could very well have been the opposite and have been resolved in 6 months instead of 2.5 years, by having many more eyes on it. The thing is that you're only listening to yourself and not to the arguments that the people you accuse of not reading the lists gave you. At this point there's not much more that can be done, you've completely closed that discussion by refusing to listen, thus I think it's better to stop now. Willy
