New submission from mandarg <mandar.mmg at gmail.com>:

Example -- search for 'Volunteer Opportunities' by language 'Python'. 
[https://openhatch.org/search/?q=&language=Python]

When I do this, the top five issues contain:

1. http://bugs.python.org/issue19669, which is in Stage 'resolved'
2. http://bugs.python.org/issue19588, which is in Stage 'patch review'
3. http://bugs.python.org/issue19626, which is in Stage 'committed/rejected'

It seems to me that these decrease the signal-to-noise ratio a lot for new volunteers looking for 
open issues to work on. I would say we could restrict our issues to ones in Stage "needs patch" or 
"test needed".

An unrelated problem is also that the python bugtracker is possibly not always updated, for 
example, shouldn't http://bugs.python.org/issue1100942 be in Stage "patch-review"? We could 
also get around this by excluding all issues with a patch attached.
