That would of course work. The question is whether we're willing to live with that. It would mean that most bugs would stay open a lot longer than they do today. Also, in the case of STABLEREQs would we treat them more like security bugs - the last arch would just post a comment that all archs are stable and un-CC themselves, but leave the bug open to remind the maintainer to go check all open bugs to see if any should be marked fixed? -- Rich
