Well, if nobody says anything, there isn't much reason to say anything, is
there? ;)
Are you sure it wasn't just a lull?

Well, in my world, getting up at 9:30 (i'm in pacific) on a weekend /is/
"really early". I don't remember when I actually started being active on
channel Sunday morning, but I doubt it was very early. I was around till fairly
late, but I don't recall anyone saying much.

This isn't something to argue with the developers on. And you had one of them
tell you it was on his to do list, and it didn't sound like it was low
priority. He thought it was a feature to add, which puts it to wishlist. And
so he put it there.
BugSquad isn't going to go against developers here, so if you want to complain,
you should be complaining to the koffice people. But I thought it was explained
quite well on channel.
I see some irc backlog discussing triage plans tommorrow, so it looks like
there will be some people around in case anyone wants company.
