Yes, sorry the GitLab ticket system is a mess. I've done the bare minimum to address only severe issues the past four years. And many issues, I've left open when I should have just put my foot down and closed them. Please feel free, Arnt. Also, feel free to ping this mailing list for cases where you want a second opinion.

It didn't take long before someone appeared offered a second opinion:

Perhaps what I ought to do there is tag feature requests as enhancements and close them. Then https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt/-/issues?state=closed&label_name%5B%5D=enhancement shows requests that noone has volunteered to act on, while
https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt/-/issues?state=opened&label_name%5B%5D=enhancement
shows requests that are being discussed, someone's volunteered to act on, haven't been looked at, etc.

I'm unhappy about leaving feature requests open when they have no real hope of getting attention. Telling people "patches welcome" isn't nice, but ignoring them for a year is IMO worse rather than better. That's my two cents, though, what do you others think?

Comments?
