RFC: dealing with old bugs, how to?



Hi,

as I'm getting to see some light at the end of this tunnel, see
http://qa.debian.org/data/bts/graphs/multi/installation-
reports,debian-installer,.png
I've been thinking how to continue...

My current idea/plan is to have the number of open bug 
installation-reports
bugs going down to zero (hahaha), by dealing with these 
bugs as following:

- by continuing closing the remaining old bugs
- by continuing closing new successful reports
- by reassigning all other bugs away, either to the relevant 
packages or if i cannot
  figure out a reasonable single package, to src:debian-
installer. 

For the last category its also ok if these bugs stays assigned 
to installation-reports
for, say, a month or two. But after that time, IMHO they 
(usually) are not useful as
installation-report anymore and should be closed or 
reassigned.

This means http://bugs.debian.org/src:debian-installer will 
collect those bugs
which shall be collected.

How does this sound?


cheers,
	Holger

P.S.: OTOH if you look at this tunnel from another 
perspective, namely
      http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/pkgreport.cgi?maint=debian-boot%40lists.debian.org
      you'll see that the end is still far... (status: 1514 
outstanding bugs.)
