Old resolved bugs

Hello Working Group,

We have a large number of bugs in RESOLVED state that have not been  
moved to VERIFY or CLOSED, and so are not in a terminal state per our  
decision policy.

I see 1324 total:

Of these 579 were moved to RESOLVED before last October, when we  
started discussing the new Decision Policy.

I strongly encourage everyone to review bugs they originated and place  
them in CLOSED state if they accept the resolution, or reopen or  
escalate the bug if not.

For the 579 older bugs, I will move them to VERIFIED by the end of the  
week. If any are still in VERIFIED after a month from Friday, then I  
will mark them as NoReply, putting them in a terminal state.

Meanwhile, for the newer bugs, I would encourage volunteers to check  
that bugs contain the required components of an editor's reply  
(including spec diff link if applicable), and if so move the bug to  
VERIFIED for action by the originator or anyone else who wishes to  
reopen or escalate.

Thanks,
Maciej
