Currently, http://drupal.org/project/user/dww includes issues marked as fixed in the "N open" counts. It'd be nice to leave those out of the totals in the summary table at the top. Should be pretty easy, so I'll take a quick stab.

dwwHrm, this is kind of tricky, since there's no UI yet to select what status values should be considered "open" or not. We could just hard-code to leave out sid '2', but that just perpetuates the problem at http://drupal.org/node/210526 (which is really dup of an older issue, but I can't find that right now).

merlinofchaos commentedRight now, the problem with the 'fixed' issue status is really that it's open but no action is required by the module maintainers. This is not the only status that suffers from this problem, as well: postponed and postponed (needs more info) are also in this category.
My proposal is that we create a new category. For the moment I'm calling this 'Outstanding'. The existing category of 'Open' issues remains.
1) Outstanding issues are defined as issues that need attention from the module maintainers. Issues that are postponed are parked, issues that are fixed are 'awaiting verification' and issues that are NMI are awaiting submitter input. The module maintainer has nothing more to do with these, so from the perspective of the module maintainers and the perspective of someone analyzing the effectiveness of the module maintainers, these are ghost issues under the current strategy. Therefore, Outstanding issues would include only 'active', 'needs review' and 'reviewed & tested by community'. Possibly patch (to be ported) as well. 'needs work' is a special case that is similar to parked. In general it means that the onus is on the submitter to do more work.
2) All of the issue statistics include this as a category, alongside the Open issues, along with handy links to the definitions so that people looking at the statistics can understand. Adding this as one of the issue category groups also makes it easy for maintainers to work on the active queue: By simply selecting "outstanding support requests" it is easy to go start looking for people who still need help.

This looks like it's still a problem.
I've been frustrated by Fixed being in the list of Open issues even https://drupal.org/project/issues/project_issue?categories=All
