Well, my idea was to only close non-security bugs.

Because woody is not supported for non-security problems.

Also, it's Evolution.  It doesn't make much sense for people to keep using
it, since it's really buggy, there's no upstream support, neither is there
going to be any Debian support, except for security related problems.

Finally, I'm keen on closing these bugs, because it's really difficult to
find the bugs that actually need fixing, given that only the bugs in sid
are going to be taken care of.

People get annoyed at the amount of bugs listed in evolution. Finding a bug
is almost impossible, and we get an awful amount of duplicates because of
that.

Ok, point taken.  I had read most of the bugs in the past, and I actually
tagged "woody" most of them, so I assumed that they were all correctly
marked woody.  I'm reopening it now.
