Personally, not really, otherwise I wouldn't be on this list.

The fact of the matter is that asking any question may or may not get an
answer.

There are many, many questions asked on these lists and only so many
people trying to answer them. Not every question gets answered, plain
and simple.

If you want guaranteed responses to questions, hire a consultant. If you
want to ask questions and hope for answers, post 'em here, but there are
no guarantees the questions will get answers.

For example, this week, the question:answer ratio is worse than normal,
in large part because Google I/O has been soaking up the time of many
people who might otherwise have been trying to offer answers.

Ah, but that's not what you wrote. You said:

"I have low expectations that this message will get any response as it
seems that Google developers do not like to address issues too close
to the Android core and to strategic mobility applications."

Had you merely done a *bump* of your prior thread, or said something to
the effect of "hey, I didn't get an answer on this before, so I'm trying
again", I wouldn't have quibbled. Instead, you chose the conspiracy
angle, and I find that to be a very curious approach when you are trying
to get help.

But, hey, that's just me.

That being said, I apologize if you were insulted by my claim that you
were being insulting.
