Well, bear in mind that some bugs sit for years because they're wishlist upstream bugs that would require significant implementation to fix and upstream isn't interested. Consider #56930 on gtimer, for example. I would exclude wishlist and forwarded bugs from that sort of metric, at least. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
