The bug should stay open until the the package is in unstable. It's the
best when you close the WNPP bug in the changelog of you r package, so it
gets automatically closed when the package goes into unstable.
When you upload a new package the ftp admins have to edit the override
file and a few days later (after the override file was changed) your
package goes in unstable.

It wasn't a big mistake, my answer did perhaps sound a bit more imrtant
than this issue is.
