I disagree.  Most bug reports will relate to the algebra, and thus affect all
versions of axiom.  Cloning all these reports means duplicate effort.

I guess the simplest solution is to replace the "status" categories as follows:

open   ... open in all versions
closed ... closed in all versions

closed in FriCAS
closed in OpenAxiom
closed in Axiom

open in FriCAS  --- closed in Axiom and OpenAxiom
open in OpenAxiom
open in Axiom

many of the others are not needed or could be merged:

assigned, revised, postponed -> not needed

pending, planned, testing -> merge with fix proposed

not reproducible, need more info -> merge

I think that would be much better organized.
