I guarantee you it wouldn't be fun. ;o)
For others interested:
Way too many people add comments to a bug report asking for a
status update on their reported problem, or some similar request.
In general, if a developer hasn't added any comments to a report,
there is no new status to report, and they will get to it in
time, depending on their various priorities. The more time spent
Despite that (and that is my personal opinion), if a serious bug doesn't
get accepted (i.e. stays NEW) for several months (or isn't active for a
very long time) giving a heads up to the developer (maybe as a PM) might
be justifiable.
On the other hand, I don't consider a missing BuildRequires: as serious
;-).
