bugs and either closed them if they were no longer relevant, or moved them
to a more appropriate component.

You are welcome to keep using tracking bugs, but you should put them in a
component related to the work being tracked.

confusing, because it's not clear who is actually responsible for *doing*
the tracking and followup. And that's a good way to remember to close out
tracking bugs when we're done with them!
