The concern here is not the time it takes; the concern is the actually remembering to do it. I agree its not a major deal, but it is something to consider.

It was just a pain in the ass to remove them because you had to reopen the issue, remove the comment and then (re)close it. In general I definitely agree that allowing comments on closed issues is positive. In fact I would argue that it is necessary. In which case I would say that we certainly want to still allow developers to reopen closed issues. -- st...@hibernate.org http://hibernate.org _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
