Ubuntu's blueprints are a mess

Asked by Grzegorz G.

Someone should clean blueprints a bit. For example I found one from 2007 (!) about dialog that pops up on opening .exe files and explains the situation. This is a very good idea. Why isn't it implemented or even reviewed? And if it's declined or old (5 years without any comment!), it should be deleted. There even is a blueprint marked for Feisty! If it's still actual it should be marked for Precise or Quantal, and if not - deleted.

Please provide links of blueprints. Usually there is approver, drafter, assignee and subscribers, maybe contact them.

The idea to delete outdated blueprints sounds marvelous (similar to clean-up wrong documentation).

Maybe ask the question there and admins may suggest how to proceed.

I registered blueprint about cleaning up blueprints (blueprintception, lol) and requested feedback from Ubuntu Documentation Project Team.

4006 blueprints having distro tags and milestones of EOLs feisty, gutsy, intrepid ...
It might be up to drafters to take on the janitor role. We'll see.
