Posts in users list are informal and in general not representative of 
any organization.   Speaking for myself  I generally respond to many 
things in this list our of my own interest and sometimes not follow up 
on the responses I might get unless its explicitly CC'ed back to me. 
This is not intentional. Simple put, things falls by the way side if you 
use the users list to send feedback to the developers due to high 
traffic here.  Morever if I am a developer or maintainer for a 
particular package, I would prefer to keep track of things in bugzilla  
rather than get responses in the users list since it would help me track 
of bugs or feature requests more easily and I am obligated to respond to 
those. If I am not a developer, I wouldnt want to file bug reports or 
feature requests on your behalf since the developer or maintainers might 
ask questions or more information to understand the rationale if its a 
feature request or reproduce it, if its a bug report which is why I and 
others encourage users to send in feedback themselves instead of being a 
proxy.

I can point to something I wrote at 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate.

Be as specific and provide detailed rationale as you can and post to the 
fedora-devel list if it really requires discussion and is not a straight 
forward bug report or feature request.  Kindly dont post any rants 
there. It only wastes time. Thanks
