I personally think that the tracker fields and how they should be set is
of minor importance. If there is a bug in Python, the most useful
contribution is to submit a fix (or provide a rationale why this is not
a bug). Asking every now and then "is this still an issue", or setting
the version number, doesn't really advance the issue.

Martin
