Is that 'reasonably well'?
I don't know. What percentage of new issues get ever get a response? My wild guess is that it's probably about 99.9%, but the 0.1% that don't remain languishing forever, skewing the statistics. What's the average age of those 1 in 5 issues? Maybe 1 in 5 is exactly right, given the realities of people available to respond to issues versus people available to report issues. Maybe 1 in 5 is supernaturally good, given our resources available. -- Steven D'Aprano _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
