I think a simple query for which issues haven't moved for over a year
should be skimmed for important stuff and close as won't fix with
comment
about reopening If still a concern for the reporter could help.
Btw. Which bz query is used on the release plan ? Couldn't find link
for
it.

Mark's summary of how it is used is accurate. I use a similar
approach,
using a separate email account to help me manage the volume. There is
definitely a bunch of ancient junk in there, which I find happens with
any
successful open source project. The old stuff was all triaged as a
reasonable idea or valid bug at the time it was entered, but over time
may
have become stale, irrelevant, or invalid. Sorting and/or querying by
most
recently modified date helps you get a more useful picture. I
sometimes go
through the old backlog and do some pruning but haven't been able to
keep
up with the volume lately. We've been talking recently about ideas for
cleaning that up - any ideas you have in that are are welcome!

I have subscribed to e-mail notifications in every Orion bugzilla
component, so I get emails for every new bug or comment. I then
archive
those emails and search them for keywords when I need to find bugs.
Admittedly this won't work for a new user, since you won't have that
email
history. If there's a set of bugs that I need to monitor closely, I
create
a custom bugzilla query that returns only those bug IDs, and bookmark
it.
Most Orion components have a reasonably-sized backlog which can be
viewed
as a list: JS Tools, Editor, Server, Doc, Releng, Node -- these are
all
OK-ish. The big problem is Client: it's a dumping ground that contains
lots of ancient junk.
Maybe we need an automated WONTFIX pass for anything with no recent
activity in (say) the last year?

Hi,
While looking into orion we were looking into current state of bugs in
bugzilla, mainly starting from the "View open bugs" and "summarise
bugs"
links at https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/eclipse.orion/developer
The 1500+ open bugs seems a bit high and some seems really old and
maybe
not even relevant anymore.
We were wondering how you do triaging on these since there are not
*that*
many components.
Any tips/inisights on how you triage this and how you suggest
newcomers
get an idea of where to sort/look
would be great!
Thanks,
