My first inclination is to take "WONTFIX" as "PISSOFF", and I even read
the previous thread in question. :)
I humbly suggest adding a "REVIEWED" and/or "NEEDSWORK" keyword and
leaving the bug in the OPEN or ASSIGNED state.
But adding the comments (with pointers to more in-depth explanations) is
a great idea, especially if you present them in a cordial way:
Thanks for helping Gentoo! The ebuild you submitted isn't quite
ready, so here is what one needs to do to get it in the tree:
link1
link2
Thanks again!
Which is probably what you're doing already. :)
As for missing/AWOL developers, and for developer/user problem
resolution, I *think* devrel handles that:
