Hi,
We currently have around 70 open linux bugs, most of which we likely won't fix ourselves. I know some of you think we should keep them open for reference until upstream fixed the bug, but I think this just clutters our bug tracker. Given the amount of duplicates I've seen, I also doubt users use the search feature or google so they don't find to reference bugs anyway.
Linux bugs are just an example, but there are certainly more and I think we should just tell the reporter to go to upstream and close our bug. If upstream is dead or doesn't have a mailing list/bug tracker, we can keep the bug, but in that case we should think about dropping the package. If it turns out to be a packaging bug we can still reopen it later.
