I have noticed that some Debian bugs are ignored for a long time, sometimes even when the person who submitted the bug offered a patch. The Debian developers/maintainers sometimes don't even reply and therefore never explain why the proposed patch cannot be applied. Why is that the case with Debian developers/maintainers?


Hi Chuck,

Maybe because developers/maintainers are not paid by the hour, but mere
volunteers, don't you think?
