My thought is that closing outright is a bit much. If the ticket is invalid or irrelevant that is one thing, but if it's still valid and just lacks the resources to do act on I don't think it should be closed. It would nice if Jira had some sort of archive mode but afaik it doesn't. Perhaps we

It sounds reasonable (especially now that https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-12 is closed), Seriously if my jira-fu is anything like close it looks like we have 5000 Unresolved issues from more than a year ago? Is that right? Ian On 24 March 2014 15:55, Andrea Aime

I'm with Jukka on this and I think his counter-proposal has a lot of merit. With unresolved issued that I would like to think would be fixed one day, I am not sure about the getting notice ticket closed. I especially like the idea of periodically asking user if issue to still a problem for
