Open issues are down to 658. 

Especially old issues need help! It *so* much less work for someone who was 
involved
(maybe the original submitter?) in an issue in the past than someone who looks 
at
it from scratch!

A *lot* of old issues can be closed just by trying to re-create the bug and 
then seeing that
it has been fixed ages ago,

Especially looking at your own issues, this is *very* needed. 
If an issue is open for 2 years, maybe the description is not well written? 

So ask yourself; Has the issue really enough information for *someone else* to 
act?
(an issue tracker is not your personal TODO list!)
