Another useful triage I think, is to review the oldest bugs (some of them are > 5 years) and remove the ones that are not relevant anymore, or duplicate with newer entries.

I believe someone (Daniel Diniz, maybe?) did do a pass over those some time in the last 12 months, so most of the obviously irrelevant ones that are that old should already be gone. Not to say it isn't worth doing another pass, just saying not to get disheartened if there aren't many that can be readily closed.

There are at least a few still kicking around just because they're difficult to deal with (there's an ancient one to do with one of the ways circular imports can fail that I occasionally go back and reread before moving on to something more tractable).

Cheers, Nick.
