Hello Nathanael:

I of course appreciate your work, but you are basically flooding gcc-bugs
with these messages. May I ask you to discuss such issues on the main
mailing list before doing it? We (bughunters) are trying to mantain gcc-bugs
in a decent readable state, and right now people are willing to purge their
directories because of these floods, making the whole mailing list useless
and unmantainable. Moreover, we have bugzilla rights to do such batch
changes without spamming gcc-bugs.

Besides, we were discussing the whole VERIFIED/RESOLVED/CLOSED issue
off-list (and once we would have found an agreement among ourselves, we were
going to bring the issue on the list of course). Theoretically, nobody
decided yet if we wanted to mantain a difference between "closed" states or
not, so we might have to revert all these changes eventually (even if we
seem to agree that those states are useless and we simply want all bugs
CLOSED). Bugzilla itself might need changes once a policy is adopted.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Giovanni Bajo
