[Nix-dev] Too many open issues

[Michael Walker]

If there are 1000+ open issues, it's hard to know what to prioritise.
If inactive issues get closed, it at least helps cut down on things
which may no longer be relevant (and if they are, someone finds the
closed issue, comments in it, and it opens again).
