Package: bugs.debian.org

In various discussions prior to the reintroduction of bug archiving, the
release team expressed the view that bugs of release-critical severity
should not be archived until they have explicitly fixed in stable (according
to version-tracking), or have been explicitly marked as not applying to
stable (with suite tags).

This does not seem to be what has been implemented.  E.g., bug #399761 is a
serious bug that was fixed in unstable/testing but not in stable, and the
bug was archived.  This has a negative impact on tracking RC bugs as a whole
in stable, because explicit action is required in order to keep these bugs
from being archived.

Please do not archive release critical bugs before they're fixed in stable,
unless explicit suite tags have been used to mark these bugs as only
applying to other suites.
