Although it's the best for the community as a whole that a defect doesn't
last long unresolved, but the committers may not always have the chance to
fix them.

A trivial defect in tapestry-jquery hasn't been even replied too
although reported
2 days ago <https://github.com/got5/tapestry5-jquery/issues/230> and on the
google group, the post disclosing the
matter<https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!topic/tapestry5-jquery/owgJzegUI4g>was
viewed 3 times only at the time of writing this !

Some other times defects are just too noisy to be
fixed<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1948> and
would have a MAJOR impact on backward compatibly so it'll have to be done
on a major release such as Tapestry 6 :)

And no one is getting paid to do it. May be in an indirect way such as
using the framework but not directly so they *have to* to solve defects.
May be when a committer faces a reported issue, that could be another story
:D
