What Is The Average Age Of Bugs Fixed?
Answered
Each time a new EAP comes out and I look at the release notes it makes me wonder how many of the bugs/issues that have been fixed have been introduced in the current version of IDEA and how many are much older.
e.g. is the EAP treading water fixing new bugs introduced from new features or are we headed to the utopia of no bugs at all!
Based on the updates I get from YouTrack on some of my issues, I already know that a variety of new and old issues get fixed so I'm not complaining. I'm just wondering about statistics.
Is there any way to get statistics of the average age of bugs fixed in a release from YouTrack?

I don't have the statistics at hand but most of fixed issues are relatively young. We do extra dedicated effort to fix older issues. Or in other words old issues usually require us more effort to fix.
