Top posting.
If the closure of all old bugs is decided, I would like the team to consider
keeping the bugs that have gathered votes. The threshold remains to be agreed
on.
We cannot just dump enhancement requests or bugs that draw much attention from
users. That would mean that AOO does not want to take the whole inheritance of
OOo.

Nevertheless I would like to see them closed. It's possible to reopen an issue
when one has the impression it's worth it.
IMHO "Sometimes" is not enough to justify to leave billions (may feeling) of
issue open.

OK, maybe older issues with newer comments should be left open.
But duplicates are coming even when issues are already closed. People setting themselves
at CC in the old, closed issue and then open a new issue. The summary at the end is not
seldom "I've the same problem."
Let's cleanup our issue base. For this we don't need a (new) volunteer. We can
discuss about the criteria and then just close them.

Thanks for generating the numbers. Even when it is no surprise that we
have many unsolved issues, it's always good to know the current values.
In general I agree with Juergen and Roberto, we should focus on the
newer times of AOO.
Suggestion:
To get rid of old issues we need to close all issues that are already in
a state short before closure [*]:
Duplicate, Irreproducible, Obsolete, Not_an_issue, Verified, Wont_fix
As second step we can close all issues that are in status "Resolved" and
last updated months/years ago.
Then we have a much lower base of open issues and can filter better
about age, importantance and severity. Finally it's then easier to
decide what to do with the remaining open issues.
[*] This makes it necessary to stop all BZ notification mails. Otherwise
we get flooded by billions of mails and get hit by the Infra team all
summer long. ;-)
