Hey everyone, I am quite annoyed by the bugzilla bot marking inactive issues as RESOLVED ARCHIVED. Following are the reasons why I want the bot should be stopped to do that.
1) Handful of issues only live in a state of bot marking that as "resolved archived" and then author marking that as "CONFIRMED" again. This goes on until author of the issues decides to surrender. This is not a good UX. 2) Hides bugs. There are some existing bugs which are marked as "RESOLVED ARCHIVED" because nobody looked at them when they was filed. This does not mean that nobody will look at them or need them. Having a bug active helps in: * Looking for existing bugs in a certain component. For example, I want to try narrow, and there are let's say 2 bugs related to narrow with "RESOLVED ARCHIVED" state, it won't be obvious for me to look for bugs in that state. Also I might hit the bug again in future. * With programmes like summer of code, we have few new contributors coming every year. Or there are people who just want to contribute, having those bugs there might help to them. 3) It's harmless. I don't see an harm in having those bug remained open. Thanks and regards Pulkit
