The PR has been merged a couple of hours ago. That means: * for normal users the bug tracker is now read-only, except that they can link to pull requests. Voting on bugs is completely disabled for everbody. * the original bug reporter is also allowed to edit the original post. * developers are still allowed to add comments, add patches, link pull request etc.; i.e. no new restrictions are imposed on them. Since the code base of the old bug tracker does not conform to contemporary coding practises, and due to time constraints, only some limited testing of the changes could be done (thank you very much, Derick, for doing this!), so some of the new behavior may not be as intended. If you notice any issues, please file a ticket at <https://github.com/php/web-bugs/issues>, or perhaps even better, submit a pull request at <https://github.com/php/web-bugs/pulls>. Also note that it wouldn't make sense to do some refactoring or general improvements to the code base; the long term goal should still be to archive the bug tracker (i.e. make it read-only for everyone, even developers). As such, please don't file new issues or pull request for that. Only focused (minor) fixes appear to make sense at this point. Cheers, Christoph
