Hi Let me chime in:
i think we should not discourage people from raising bug tickets. those are important. i agree with clean slate principal but maybe i would increase from 3 months to 6 months the threshold. Also it would be the best wehn a bug ticket is raised then the DEV mail list should be informed. Whether it is before or after i am not sure. i think we just dont have visibility on the newly created bugs and those are not reviewed and discussed, so noone's picking it up. What do you think?
