Hi, I was under impression that bugs.php.net was supposed to be phased out. I.e. made read-only or something. https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78628&edit=1 proves that it's not the case and I'm receiving annoying spam recently.

From the GitHub issues RFC:
> Per the above, bugs.php.net will remain active for the following purposes: > * Reporting of security issues against PHP. > * Commenting/updating on existing issues.
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/github_issues#bugsphpnet Security issues have since been moved to GitHub. However, commenting/updating bugs is still possible. IMO it would make sense to limit this functionality to admins, and encourage users who want to add context to create a new issue on GitHub. It has much better spam protection, and visibility will be higher there too. Ilija

It's closed for new tickets, but not for updating tickets (or adding comments). cheers, Derick
