We did this bug clean up before so this isn't new to me. However, I do
wonder if the resolution "Won't Fix" rubs people the wrong way? Maybe if we
had an "Abandoned" resolution that would sit better. Aside from reading the
comments in the ticket, it's not possible to know what was closed truly
because something is intended never to be fixed and what was closed due to
age.


Cheers,
Paul
