Sorry, but NO. It only shows that there is more people needed for
maintaining the package!

Moreover, responding for a bugreport can end in less time needed to fix
the bug. Maybe the reporter has still a (local) solution and did not
append it as patch. Simply asking would help to get this patch. Maybe a
response can also be like "do you have some experience? Can you help out
fixing the bug?" I'm sure that there are some bug reporter out there
who are able to fix bugs and would answer positive to such questions.
But if there is no response to a bug report nobody is engaged to spend
only a minute to fix it.

Regards
   Klaus

Ps. Syntax "bugs" in this message have to be ignored.
