Ah, the curse of open bug tracking. Everyone is fixing bugs all the time[1], it's just that process is visible in open source apps.

[1] If they're not, that's even worse.

That's not how it works. Every program that evolves also creates bugs all the time because of bad implementations, bad formulation, bad problem scoping, bad integration. If your project creates more bugs every week than it can possibly fix you can have these weekly bug fixing newsletter forever and at the same time accumulate more bugs than you ever had.
