12 That would of course work. The question is whether we're willing to

16 Also, in the case of STABLEREQs would we treat them more like security
17 bugs - the last arch would just post a comment that all archs are
18 stable and un-CC themselves, but leave the bug open to remind the
19 maintainer to go check all open bugs to see if any should be marked
20 fixed?
