In 2011, actually. Discussion is here: https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/a22baae8830ca806684da98ce7698206 "Right now, it seems logical to use UNCONFIRMED for the new bugs and let devs (re-)confirm them as necessary. I think it might be even a good idea to limit the possibility of setting 'CONFIRMED' to devs. Otherwise, I see users bumping each of their bugs to 'CONFIRMED' immediately." https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/33e6f39fbfafe95c18c563b12c61d9f0
