Description
i opened bug # 11420. i'd like to re-open it, but i get an error saying i don't have permission. perhaps trac gets confused by the fact that i changed my email address along the way?

that completely defeats half the purpose of using a ticketing system. are you really seriously saying that having multiple tickets opened on the same issue is better that reopening an existing ticket that was prematurely closed? if so, that is contrary to the way the admins of EVERY other bugtracking system i use feel :(

As far as I know you would need the TICKET_MODIFY permission to reopen a ticket. But this gives full control about the ticket regarding description, reporter etc. We don't want everyone to edit that.
Instead of opening new tickets, you can still add a comment and ask for reopen.

Now that we use trac 0.11, can't we use the TracWorkflow stuff to make this work without TICKET_MODIFY (eg, TICKET_CREATE for reopened)? Or is trac.ini offlimits?

unfortunately, that system has been proven to not be robust :(

Open a new ticket and note that they are related.
Is that the official MacOSForge trac policy, or is there anything like what I asked in comment 5?

raimue: do you now see why being able to reopen one's own tickets is important? it's been 6 months that i've been asking for this ticket to be reopened and it still hasn't been :(
