I'm soory, but I tried to safe my time and went over most of the mails in this thread but one point I was missing (only one mail of Cobaco was touching the idea a little bit): Not answering a bug report is IMHO at least as impolite as refusing to answer a hello of a friend you meet anywhere and just continue to walk your way by ignoring him. If we are really obliged to our users we have the obligation to leave them at least a short notice (even if it is only a short sentence which will took 30 seconds) where a rough estimate of a time frame or reasons why we can not fix the bug in a short time will be given. A maintainer who refuses to respond to a reasonable bug report of a user does not deserve any user.
