Thanks, Benedikt and Mark. I have made my first commit (woo!) and
will
start working through JIRA to clear out the easy stuff. Is there
any rule
(by writ or general practice) for closing tickets that haven't seen
any
action in some time? Seems like old tickets that haven't moved in
a while
(e.g. [1]) might be candidates for "reopen if this becomes
interesting
again."
There is no strict procedure for this kind of issues. In your
particular
case, Sebb has already commented that this addition doesn't really
make
sense. Since the contributor hasn't reacted on the comment, I think
it's
okay to close this issue as Won't fix.
Note, that we only set the Fix Version for issues that have actually
been
implemented. So when an issue is closed as Won't fix, duplicate,
invalid
etc, we remove the fix version, so that it doesn't show up in the
reports
for this version.
In many components the fix version is only added when the fix is
actually implemented.
i.e. it is treated as "has been fixed in version x" rather than "this
is an issue to be fixed in version x"
JIRA allows both (when the issue is created and when it is resolved).
Setting the "Fix version" allows a clearer view of what needs to be
done before the next release can happen.
