Package: debbugs Version: 20011209 (bts.debian.org version) Severity: wishlist I would love to see the BTS "close" command deprecated. I can't think of a single situation in which it is a good thing to use. The only situation in which it is currently necessary is in the sequence "close nnnnn; reopen nnnnn new-email", which should be replaced by the single command "submitter nnnnn new-email". If people think this is good and the BTS maintainers want it, I'm willing to help code this simple change.

The deprecation of closed is now fully documented and the method of using alternatives is well understood. The command still exists, but should not be used. Therefore I'm closing this bug.
