    <p>I agree that the situation is not ideal. I'd love to see the
      system be improved with something like the "stale" or "need info"
      features of bug reporting systems, which could close a note
      automatically if it is in a state of "need info" for 6 months
      without an answer.</p>
    <p>Cheers<br>
