Well the issue is that we currently have over 900 open issues in the Asterisk
project alone, and with only one primary bug marshal (myself) sometimes things
accidentally get closed if it looks like a configuration issue.

If anyone ever opens an issue they they feel is a bug and the issue is closed,
then the best forum is the #asterisk-bugs IRC channel. This allows you to speak
with the bug marshals and to work through some additional information that might
be required to help determine that something is truly an issue.
