Wow!!!
Thank you for all that work. I have no excuse to delay, now :-)

For anything that is obviously not a bug, you are welcome (encouraged,
even) to mark them as such and to close them in the bug db.

I suppose you know how to do that? One way is to reply to the affected
message and to include something like this at the top of it:

Here's an example that merges two bugs, tags as NOTABUG, and closes.
    forcemerge 7354 7353
    tags 7353 notabug
    close 7353
    thanks

Or just send that text to control <at> debbugs.gnu.org. Anyone can do that.

If you just want to close a bug, it's easy to do that with a reply to
the original where you change the auto-provided DDDDD <at> debbugs.gnu.org
recipient address to be DDDDD-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org

Thanks again.
I will take time to go through any you do not close/resolve within the
next few days.

Thanks again,
Jim
