Ouch.

Do you have specific examples?

I'm not denying they exist. I just had mostly positive experience with
<https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues> . Because I'm also Chromium
developer, I know that's what people "actually working on things" use.

I admit with 85000+ open issues not all of them are getting enough
attention. But if you know an upstream developer, it's easier to get the
right people to look at the bug.

Of course above is not the only Google project, and I don't have much
experience with the other ones.
