Right, but how do i figure out whether my issue has been seen by anyone at all ? I'm trying to find out the way I can.
if you are using the tracker to send emails to pd-dev without having to be subscribed, then you are obviously trying to tweak rules of pd-dev. if you try to tweak the rules, then you should probably know them. [...] why do you insist in having explicit knowledge about the rules?
Because I believe that the tracker and pd-dev are run by people who value openness of information and enjoy contributions from outsiders.
If the rules aren't written down in a list of rules, there are no rules.
i keep submitting bugs and patches to other projects at sourceforge, and i couldn't care less whether these tickets are automatically forwarded to some email address or not. i don't know the tracker rules of these projects. but i see that there _is_ a tracker, and hope that someone will eventually read it (when they find time). that's it.
Do you mean that other submitters ought to follow your example of not caring about where your efforts are going ?
