I think it's a good idea to reduce the number of bugs.  I don't think
bulk closing just because they've not been updated in a while is a
good move.  It's artificial.  Here's what I plan to do, so please beat
me to it if you want:

"so that we can concentrate on 3.6, I'd systematically check and
RESOLVE WONTFIX the ~140 bugs reported not against maintained versions
and I'd suggest reclassifying the 771 bugs reported against master as
reported against the version which immediately follows the date they
were reported."

Remember, RESOLVED WONTFIX does not mean it isn't a bug: it just
means we don't have anyone who will fix it.  Someone can always
REOPEN it and ASSIGN it to themselves.

Hope that helps,
