Hi Niels,

I think that this bug was "fixed" by a script that is run on a
regular basis and closes old RFP. See for example
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=137712#22

However, I can't find any mention of this script still running: there
are indeed old RFPs still open.

Now, looking specifically at your script, another way to list such RFPs
would be to use UDD (http://udd.debian.org/). Your script is fine, but
you might want to take a look anyway.
