And I'd like a pony. :-)

The most obvious reason that the patch hasn't been applied is that it
isn't listed as 'ready for checkin' . This means that the triage team
either hasn't looked at it yet, or if they have, they thought that the
patch wasn't right. The absence of any comments from the triage team
suggests that the former is the case.

However, more generally: keep in mind that the core developers are all
_very_ busy, and more importantly, are _volunteers_. Our time is very
much a limited resource. Complaining that we haven't fixed your pet
bug doesn't improve the situation - because we have to spend some of
our Django-time writing messages like this one.

Also - keep in mind that if you have a patch that fixes the problem,
you can apply that patch in your local installations. Yes, it's
annoying that it isn't in the core distribution, but that doesn't mean
you are completely hamstrung.
