[Python-Dev] Goodbye (original) (raw)

Asking every now and then "is this still an issue", or setting the version number, doesn't really advance the issue.

Setting Versions properly helps anyone searching for issues relevant to a particular version. If having a field set properly does not matter, then is should not be there. Are you suggesting that Versions be deleted?

I didn't say the field does not matter. I said adjusting it doesn't advance the issue. Anybody really working on the issue might choose to update it, or might choose to leave it incorrect when the issue is going to be closed, anyway. I do believe that much of the information on closed issues is irrelevant - yet I would oppose to deleting them entirely from the database.

Regards, Martin
