See https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues/created_by/matkoniecz See also at https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues how many issues of all reported are open (2/3 ratio is typical for abandoned or completely dysfunctional projects). In fact, real issue tracker used by developers is private (at least it was some time ago when I still tried to report bugs and expected that there is a real chance of a fix).
