I admire the enthusiasm in which it is suggested that every bug report should 
result in an immediate diagnosis, an immediate patch, and an immediate new 
release.

It simply isn't deliverable unless, and until, the project would be drowning in 
resources.

Anyone (and everyone) who is both capable and interested to help, as you appear 
to be offering to do, and their help of course, is most welcome.
