We already know that bugzilla feedback is far from ideal. We have a QA 
lead now to lead this triaging effort and we need many more from the 
community to contribute.  The only way to fix that problem is to 
participate and help.

Still, having a bugzilla report filed on 2005-11-27 go without a single 
response from the package owner till date is not very reasonable and 
Fedora Board cannot micro manage at this level.
