i guess (and this is an experienced guess :) that about 30% of the 
current issues have no responses for months or are found on versions 
long time ago, are not reproducable anymore or written that bad that 
nobody can follow the description etc. :( so i usually rework them 
without even opening the office :)

p.s. for the special, really complex issues we need the more specialized 
community (especially the base qa team) for recheck, but if an issue is 
that special that nobody can recheck it, how important it can be to fix 
it (and how many people will benefit from the fix)?
