Use of boost for Statistical function (BZ 121768)

[Rob Weir <ro...@apache.org>]

Can someone get Pedro to stop vandalizing this Bugzilla issue?

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121768

He has marked it "won't fix" twice now, and tried to obsolete the
patch, merely because he doesn't think it has been integrated fast
enough for him.

Since he never planned on working on it, and said so in the first
instance, the proper status is to leave the issue open until someone
can work on.  We have patches much older than this one, with patches,
that are waiting for integration.

If we just got upset and delays and marked issues that we entered
"won't fix" then we make it impossible for others to later find such
issues.  I find this very practice offensive and anti-social.  The
reporter of an issue does not *own* the issue.  They merely report the
issue.  The deposition of the issue is a community decision.  In this
case I think the issue should remain open as an enhancement.

As a reminder, when I suggested, not too long ago, that we close
enhancement requests that had been open for more than 5 years, my
proposal was vigorously opposed and rejected.  So I think it would be
odd to do it differently for an issue that has been open for only *3
months*.


Regards,
