This is something which has amazed / annoyed me too, I've tried several times
to start a community effort to something about this metric, but sofar with
little success.
These bugs fall into 2 categories:
1) Bugs which are simply being ignored by @redhat.com people who need to be hit
with the cluebat (repeatedly)
2) Really really hard bugs (think xorg / kernel / hal /mkinitrd)
Most likely a lot of 1) bugs are already solved but never got closed /
retested, others should be taken upstream (and thus closed in Fedora BZ), etc.
/me thinks we really should do something about the category 1 bugs....

Hans
