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. On the topic of bugs that can be readily closed (literally), I've recently come across a number of issues which appear to be sitting in a patch or review stage, but their patches have been committed and the issue remains open. What is the best course of action there? I'd just go ahead and close the issue myself but I don't have tracker privileges. If a core developer is willing to step forward and vouch for you to get tracker privileges then I will give them to you. We are trying to give out tracker privs w/ less time than required to get commit privileges. So as long as you have helped out on a few issues in a positive and correct way that should be enough to get one of the regulars who perform triage to notice.

I'm willing to help out with another Daniel Diniz-esque triage sweep if that

would help.
