I understand your frustration -- I too have reported bugs that have not seen a resolution. It's bound to happen, on a distribution where the users far outnumber the developers. There's a finite number of developers and they are doing the best that they can. You seem to be implying that all the developers are just sitting around, slacking off, and doing nothing, which is simply inaccurate.
Also, having programming or computer science knowledge is not a requirement for helping out with the bug tracker scene. Why not try to triage some bugs? I'm sure you've been using Ubuntu long enough to have an understanding of what is a valid bug, and what is user error or a duplicate of some other bug. Performing these elementary triaging tasks frees up time that more programming-oriented developers would be spending doing this, not to mention it makes the entire bugtracker cleaner, thus developers can easily see bugs that are valid and can be fixed. If you have any other constructive solutions or suggestions, we'd be more than happy to hear them out. Otherwise, we are all just wasting time -- you writing these e-mails, us reading/replying to them. Time that can be better spent doing more productive things.
