It used to be that if I reported a bug I could expect to be asked some
questions and probably to post the output of certain commands.  This
rarely happens now.  Of course it may be that now I know more about
what is needed, but I don't think that's anything like all of the story.

I have said before that automatic bug reporting is a mixed blessing -
it probably does get the important information across, but having
hundreds arriving each day must make it almost impossible to triage.
I suspect that many developers are simply overwhelmed by the quantity
of reports they are expected to process.
