A good bug tracker makes it easier to track status and priority. The ironic thing about the blog post is that it is certainly possible there is a 14.5 year old bug in Postgres, but how would you know? Who is going to go look at 14.5 year old bug report emails and try to figure out if any of them are still open?
- dom0 9y agoContra: A 14.5 year old open issue that is genuinely untouched for 14.5 years is most likely irrelevant, either because it was swept up, has become obsolete or is some kind of request that no one cares about (otherwise it would not sit around untouched for 14.5 years).
- rpedela 9y agoTypically yes, but that is just it. Without a tracker, how do you know for sure?
