Bugs in old versions

Hi,

we have some open issues which were opened on older verions. (about 20 
in HSSF ) I would like to help a bit and clean up. Whats the correct / 
wanted procedure?
If the issue is still in the current CVS, I can simply set the version 
to 3.0 dev I guess.
But what if the error is no longer re-produceable? May I close the 
issue? Or do I select "Works for me?" Some of the issues are as old that 
I am afraid that we cannot reach the caller of this issues any longer.

Regards
Joern

Hi,

If a bug still persists, just change the version to 3.0.

If you can't reproduce it in POI 3.0, it would be nice to have a unit test per bug to
make sure that the problem disappeared. To write unit tests, you can follow the pattern  in
src/testcases/org/apache/poi/hssf/usermodel/TestBugs.java

When the unit tests are ready, create a patch (cumulative or a
separate patch per bug - doesn't matter) and put in Bugzilla.

Yegor
