On a related note: there have been a couple cases where i've filed bugs in Launchpad and the bug reports go untouched for 2-3 _years_ before someone sets a priority. In such cases, the admin always says, "please check on the latest version." (Fair enough -the report was against a much older version.) But if they are taking several years to answer then i honestly can't be bothered to go back and verify the bug on a newer system. Waiting too long to prioritize new bugs leaves a bad taste in user's mouths (at last it does mine).
