Regarding reported issues: kind of hard to not forget anyone. It happens
very often that some issues are reported on the forum and sometimes the
devs are creating the issue, without the ability to attribute it (since the
user does not exist on JIRA).
The idea is not to be 100% perfect but to do a best effort and have it automated as much
as possible.
If some dev report it in IRC but not in JIRA then it becomes an issue reported by whoever
created the jira. It’s logical and fine with me. It’s some extra effort to create the jira
:)
Thanks

Also we could close some issues that are years old and
would be a bit odd.
On Design, the proposal might be implemented after some time, so these
things don't quite reflect the workload for that particular period of time.
Thanks,
