I have not closed anything explicitly. The only explanation I have is that your pull request may have been automatically closed by github infrastructure when I deleted the Jersey 1.x github issue tracker (since we have been tracking issues on java.net Jira and I have noticed that somehow the repository was misconfigured to support issue tracking). Is that the case? Did you somehow bind the pull request to a github issue?

On the other hand when I tried to do precisely that (https://github.com/jersey/jersey-1.x/pull/5) I waited 3 weeks for a reply, and then you closed the pull request without merging the changes or leaving a comment.

As such we are not going to fix it in Jersey 1.x as this code has been moved to sustaining mode and we do not have cycles to fix such minor issues in a sustained code base. We will still be delivering fixes for critical bugs discovered in 1.x code base. However any new features or minor improvements & annoyance fixes in 1.x code base are left for community contribution.
