I agree with some sort of deadline, but what if a maintainer fixes some bugs but not all of them? Also, does this only apply to actual bugs, or feature requests? There are also some bugs in BGL that apply to interfaces (such as the one to LEDA) that are no longer maintained. Does the maintainer have discretion on what bugs to consider important (if they do reply and say something is a low priority)?
See if my recent reply to Vicente addresses your concern.
It does somewhat -- there are BGL bugs that are kept open (because they are legitimate problems) that have too low of a priority to work on actively. If a user submits a patch for them and can test it they will be fixed. On the later things in your reply to me, I do like the new rewrite. -- Jeremiah Willcock
