Suppose there's an issue in Trac about program_options library. The issue is such that I personally have no hope of *ever* fixing it. What should be done to such issue: 1. Close it as won't fix. 2. Keep it open. (1) has the advantage that the issue won't show up in my searched, making life easier for me, but it reduces chances that somebody else will accidentally see and fix it. OTOH, the chances of such fix are also pretty low. So, I personally prefer (1), but I also think we should have a single consistent meaning of what open issue in Trac means, and under what cases an issue that is not actually fixed can be closed. Any comments? - Volodya
