It had more to do with the fact that I got an email from Trac today when you updated it, which reminded me of the issue and I decided it provided a good example of my concern (versus just general complaining, which tends to lead nowhere). > Fact is, that we got ourselves into this mess with dozens (hundreds?) of > open and often outdated tickets and we now need to find a way to handle > this so that the ticket system becomes a really useful development tool > again.

Probably for the really old tickets (like mine), it's not unreasonable to close it with "Fixed in later version" or something similar (provided it actually is, of course). And to clarify, I wasn't so much put off by your closing of the ticket, just reminded of why I was put off two years ago. Anyway, I know this is a huge task and I wish you best of luck.
