Bugs aren't closed on age, but on priority, availability of someone who understands the code to fix, how difficult it is to fix, and whether the fix will have side-effects. In fact, some old bugs should not be fixed, because the fix could have a worse outcome than the workarounds already deployed. And lest someone accuse me of spending time writing emails when I could be working on bugs, I was working on bugs. I closed two yesterday in-between writing emails on this thread. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel DPG Cloud Engineering _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest
