Ready, fire, aim, eh?

"Nobody seems to care" doesn't really seem fair, given that you opened
the bug & then there were no further comments at all. Your second
comment was around the same time you sent this email, and since then
there has been some activity.

With this tone, you're not really rubbing the people in a position to
help up the right way. I don't want to pick on you, but a little stick,
a little carrot wouldn't hurt. The platform is not abandoned (and saying
so is reflecting badly on the people maintaining it).

Unfortunately, I am not aware of the list of people who are in a
position to debug & fix this problem, I know that Niels can, and I
assume that Ferenc also has access to the downloads site, but I'm not
sure how well he knows it. Outside of that I don't know of a definitive
list. Niels, perhaps you could help out by providing one & I'll document it?

Cheers,
Dave.
