It seems that the BTS sent you messages like this one:
[...]
Subject: Bug#115807: marked as done (doc-debian: Debian FAQ: JDK is not part of Debian)
[...]
Your message dated Fri, 02 Nov 2001 00:12:33 -0500
with message-id <E15zWd7-0001Yw-00@auric.debian.org>
and subject line Bug#115807: fixed in doc-debian 2.2.5
has caused the attached Bug report to be marked as done.
This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with.
If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the
Bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith.

I don't see why it's so hard to figure out what's it about.
This is hardly new behaviour, it's been like this for a few years.

Those mails are Bcc:ed to debian-bugs-closed AFAIR, this way it's obvious
from one message what the bug was about. Santiago's reason looks valid,
too :)
