My only comment on this is that this is *exactly* why the ticket is locked.
 It has been said time and time again.  Discussions occur on the discussion
list.  The TRAC system for this project is not to be used as a conversation
archive or discussion forum and, as such, tickets are locked when it occurs.
 This is not a slight against the ticket reporter, commenter, or the bug in
question.  It is simply a mechanism to keep the ticket record clear of
excess comments.
