Close issues

[Nebucatnetzer]

There are a lot of open issues which should get closed IMO.
Keeping them open gives the impression that the repo isn't properly maintained.
If it helps I can compile a list of all rhe issues that should get closed im my opinion.

@Nebucatnetzer what is the current status of this?

[Nebucatnetzer]

#236 is over two years old and the author hasn't answered since over a year.
#200 as well very old.
#182 last comment over a year ago.
#178 last comment over a year ago.
#157 last comment over a year ago.
#130 last comment over two years ago.
#102 last comment over two years ago.

As a note to the issues listed here. I personally would close old stuff from time to time to keep things in order.
For certain issues it might be better to comment with something like "We'll put it on our feature list, no ETA however." and then close it.
Same goes for the stuff with the "Help wanted" label. Does it make sense to keep an issue around for two years?
IMO that just clogs things up.
Btw I'm not using the # in ordner not to necro post all the old issues.

Thanks for the list!

You can implement something like probot/stale to do this automatically and also remind that you have stale issues :)

[Nebucatnetzer]

Aye that would work as well but it is up to the devs to decide if they want to automate this.

Closing this. 😉 All the mentioned issues have been dealt with long ago. Any further needed "meta" discussions about repo management can go into new issue(s) or other channels.
