What’s the policy regarding when to close an issue? After the fix is merged to master
? After a version with the fix is released?
IIUC, Racket has been doing the former, but some projects do the latter (e.g., Pyret — though we do apply the label “fixed” after the fix is merged to master
), and I wonder about the pros and cons of each approach. In particular, could it be that the latter will reduce duplicate issues?
Asking this because I have been closing these dup issues three times already:

I suggest the former because in my experience the latter means issues just get forgotten about in an open state
