Hi,

I'm against an automatic closing policy, since there is no "waiting for
reply" state, but a closing policy based on severity of the bug may be
usefull.

Severity	Closed after no reply
Blocker		never
Critical	never
Major		3 Month with 3 requests
Normal		2 month with 2 requests
Trivial		1 month with 1 request
Enhancement	1 month with 1 request

Just my E0.02
Jaap
