Jira has a reminder plugin that will annoy (remind) the assignee if he has not 
updated the ticket. 

I don't know if apache has it enabled, if not, may be we can look into making a 
crawler that goes out and look for tickets that have not been updated for "x" 
number of days - and if found, send a reminder.

Hmm, I think they are all distinct, and only really 'linked' to the issue of 
getting code in which seems complete, but perhaps I am wrong.
