+
+Looks like this issue has been hanging around for a bit without much action. Our roadmaps have evolved quite a bit since then, and a bunch of older issues aren't really applicable anymore. So, we're tidying things up by closing out the older ones to keep our issue tracker nice and organized for future feedback.
+
+If you still think this problem needs addressing, don't hesitate to reopen the issue. We're here to help!
+
+Thanks a bunch!"
