Hi all,

this is a follow up on PMC response https://www.eclipse.org/lists/platform-dev/msg03319.html

As of today, this bug auto-closing is not active only for JDT project.

The proposal is to switch "off" bug auto-closing for the all Eclipse platform projects, including Platform, JDT, PDE und Equinox.
I don't think if we need an additional vote for PDE & Equinox, because the only active committers there are same as on the Eclipse platform.

This should happen per project as even if active committers are  Eclipse platform committers too not every platform committer is PDE or Equinox committer and this doesn't guarantee that the voting will have the same conclusion.
 

Therefore I would like to start voting to stop auto-closing bugs in bugzilla, github, gitlab (or whatever else bug trackers we might use in the future) for all Eclipse platform development.

I think it is enough to post your +1 / 0 / -1 as a reply on this mailing list.
Everyone is welcome to vote but binding votes are committers`votes.
I would propose to conclude the vote by the end of the next week (25 February).

-1
In my opinion having bugs open without anyone looking into them for years is bad and even worse as it gives false sense of support which in reality is not there. I would change my mind if/when I see active triaging going on.
 

Kind regards,
Andrey Loskutov
