We could ask at the same time of the change.
I guess in the future this method will be hard to keep no ? (ping after
3 months of inactivity)
That's why, I proposed to close only at the End of Life of the release
all bugs of the unsupported version, and ask people to upgrade and
reopen if still valid (fedora do that iirc).

</I>Indeed, if people don't close bugs after our request it can make false
positive.

What was the topic ?
For the duplicate bugs, why not but it seems hard to manage.

Graphiz was installed on the bugzilla, but not the function to make
report against the time.
