In case we need some instruction from OP on how to reproduce I totally agree,
no response or any sign of interest from reporter then let's close as
abandoned.
Same case if there's no way to retest anymore because servers are dead, or
trial versions don't exists anymore or never did, etc.

But if there's a test application or working download link and detailed
instructions,
it doesn't matter if OP still cares or not.

I don't know why those certain people are doing it, I thought it was on your
approval actually,
a person that CCed you on this particular bug is not capable of listening I'm
afraid.

And thank you very much for spending time on that, I don't mean to diminish in
any way
the work you do.

I agree, I don't expect you to do that. Also I don't expect bugs to be closed
because of that, somebody else might take a look eventually years from now,
and if a report is closed nobody will.
