really should adjust your expectations. If some number of cases of
what you perceive to be wasted effort outweighs those cases where bugs
are fixed and millions of people benefit because of you then go ahead
and give up. I think the single case here or there where you are the
reason millions of people benefit outweighs all the annoying cases
where your report might appear to be ignored though.
I would say that maybe 30% of the bugs I report get fixed, at most. Of
those that don't, about 60% get no comments by anybody except that
they're being closed at EOL.
