I'm only referring to the infrastructure when I say "the current setup." I don't think repeatedly tweaking the tracker is likely to close more issues.

But tweaking the tracker to improve the way we interact with potential contributors may get more developers in the long run, as well as closing more issues. Currently, if a bug doesn't get responded to immediately by people monitoring the bugs list, then there's no easy way to go back and query "hey, are there any bugs nobody has even looked at yet?". All this discussion is about is acknowledging that that is something we should try to keep under control by listing them in the weekly summary and by making them easy to look up.

Cheers, Nick.
