Hi! I think the new feature of LP 1.1.9 to automatically close bugs after 61 days, will be good to close most of non-important bugs.
How about to introduce it also to Answers ? To get them expired... I like also the solved answers will not appear in LP account, just in search.. like the bugs. Thanks!
