Hi!

I guess there's one exception: Duplicates shall be closed immediately.

Kind regards
Markus

> Instead of closing, change the status to "resolved".
> Additionally, add a nice message to the update, for example:

> | It looks like nobody else could reproduce the problem for more than a

> | If you think this is wrong, please reopen the issue and mention that
