For the past 2 years, situation get worse and worse - 3-4 years ago bugs were fixed rather rapid. Nowadays it seems noone even looking at Jira. I have 14 unresolved bugs (also i watch 16 more reports), only 3 of my bugs has assignees; only 5 has priorities. Should i say that newest prioritised bug is 1.2 years old?

I do, but sometimes i don't have enough time/knowledge to fix something (for example, Cocoa bugs/crashes). Isn't this crash https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-16274 important? Unfortunately, i can't fix it myself... I tried to find someone at irc channel who can help me with cocoa issues, but nobody volunteered too.
And i'm not sure that buying support will provide any help except endless mailing with support and their answers "we will do that soon". Yes, Digia site says they will fix my bugs, but i doubt this. From my point of view, it seems everybody is busy with Qt5 and fixing bugs is a low priority in Qt...

As i told, i have 16 more wathcing issues from other people. Those reports are ignored too.
What i'm trying to say, 3 years ago Jira was used at least - qt devs were looking at it, testing if bug reproduces, asked to provide more info sometimes. Now there's COMPLETE silence.
Ivan.
