Why inexcusable? Why is leaving a bug open indefinately a bad thing? |
| 9 |
If someone wants it, they can comment on the bug. This isn't a software |
| 10 |
development project (for the most part :)) so leaving a bug open causes |
| 11 |
no harm, other than to make it a bit difficult in some instances to find |
| 12 |
what you are looking for among the large number of filings. |
