Personally, I don't think that Miller should close "Rejected" or other patches, only "Accepted". Leaving non-Accepted patches open gives the patch submitter the opportunity to correct problems or update the patch.
With "rejected" patches I meant patches, that were really *rejected*, that is, stuff that will never be accepted like e.g. a patch to remove all math objects or so. Items, that aren't accepted now, don't have to be rejected automatically. However once something really is rejected, I don't see, why it should be left in an "open" state.
Yeah I guess that makes sense. Therefore the list will be kept fresh, without stale abandoned "Rejected" patches staying around. If someone wanted to revive a rejected patch, they can switch it from Closed to Open.
