I never delete any email, just archive them ;) So, I have some history of the issue, but unfortunately without: my comments (if any) and without metadata (labels, milestone etc). As recently I've got some experience with github API, maybe I should archive all issues changes (in more structured format than emails)? As for this issue - this may be related to the fact that author of this issue (desmond-decker) is also gone.
