In what way doesn't it get attention ?
I agree that it would be better if they managed to maintain "Target
Milestone" when things slips to the next release because they run out
of time and they could sometimes also be a bit more realistic when
setting "Target Milestone" so less bugs had to be postponed just before
the release. It would also be better if someone from Logitech had the
time to go through all unconfirmed bugs and confirm them. However,
besides these issues bugzilla seems pretty active to me, unless I've
missed something most (but not all) of the changes done to the code
also refers to a bugzilla report. I assume Logitech runs their own
tests, so hopefully any unconfirmed bugs reported by community will
still be reported as confirmed bugs by their own test team.
I'm reasonable happy as long as they manage to keep the bug status
updated and also have the time to go through all confirmed bugs and
prioritize and schedule them for a release by setting "Target
Milestone". Currently my feeling is that they manage to handle this
pretty good.
I can agree that it seems like the number of new and old bugs currently
in bugzilla are more than what the currently sized team realistically
can handle, but honestly this has been the case since 2006 when I got
my first Squeezebox so it's really nothing new, it just seems/is a bit
more chaotic now since Logitech is larger and more closed than
SlimDevices ever was. To ease the maintenance a lot of minor bugs could
probably be closed as WONTFIX since they never will get enough priority
anyway, the same thing could also be said about some of the enhancement
requests. I understand why they don't dare to do that though, because it
would make people upset today instead of making them upset in two years
when they realize their minor problem isn't going to be fixed.
