-* Bug database is cluttered with old stuff
-* Only triagers and devs can re-open bugs
-** Normal people can only clone bugs
-* Process:
-** For '''Unassigned''' bugs that are 1 year old or more, post a nice comment saying we’re sorry we didn’t get to it and ask for re-confirmation
-** Move the bug to Need More Info state
-** Send a list of bugs that changed state sorted by priority (especially P0-P2)
-** Every month, expire Need More Info bugs that are 3 months old
-** For the first time, we’ll start with longer periods, then shorten to the numbers above
-* Assignment process:
-** Assignee is the person who is going to do the work, conceivably in the near future
-** If you’re not going to do work, unassign, '''but keep watching'''
-** All bugs need to have at least one watcher
-** All components must have a default assignee, who triages
-* This applies to Qt only, not Creator
-* This applies only to Bugs, not Tasks or Suggestions
