I have managed to confuse myself in the past by looking at a bug report
to soon, before debbugs has had time to process it.

Other times, I have visited the page, but actually saw an old cached
version, and had to manually reload the page to see that the bug was
closed.  I don't know if this always happens, or if that was just an
exception, because I now habitually reload the page to make sure I am
always looking at the latest version.
