As I'm sure you've heard before, we're all volunteers working in our 
spare time between full time jobs, families, churches and other 
commitments. We get to bugs based on severity, and features based on how 
much work and who is interested. We've got bug reports and feature 
requests in Launchpad from YEARS ago.

I personally do see all the bugs that are reported, I go through the 
forums and the support system every day (detracting from precious 
development time). There are various reasons why people might not 
"react" to things like this, but the main reason is because it means 
more work for an already over-worked and under-resourced team.

It's great that you're finding and reporting bugs and writing up feature 
requests (and we do appreciate it!), but please just remember the nature 
of our project and who we are.
