Hi,

i would invest some hours to do a big cleanup of our issue tracker.
There are tickets available which are 10 years old!
I think such a cleanup is really required. AFAIR mojarra did the same some
months ago.

I would do the following:

1) Close every issue older than 2010. The most issues still targets 1.x.
It's a litte bit hard to just close them but nobody will take care of them
in the future.
I would close them with a comment similiar like: Outdated, please reopen if
still interessted/required.

2) Close duplicate issues

3) Close improvements/enhancements tickets without a patch which targets
1.x - 2.1 (e.g. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-3402)

4) Close issues without feedback - same comment as 1)

5) Close issues which are untouched and feedback would be required - same
comment as 1) (e.g. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-3670)

Maybe each commiter could also go through his own tickets and close them if
not required anymore (e.g. like
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-2635 ?)

WDYT?
