Sparing everyone else a browse of the bugtracker: the maintainer does not seem to use a bot to autoclose issues. The close issues appeared to be actually closed and it seemed from a quick glance that he actually investigated each filing.

Yep, no bots. A real bug not only means that I wasted someone else’s time, but reporting is a gift for an improvement. If a misunderstanding then it’s motivation that my project is used and deserves a generous reply. This perspective and treating as strictly a hobby, rather than as a criticism or demand for work, makes OSS feel more sustainable.
