If no action by us gets combined with automated weekly emails then
no responses to the latter is not an unexpected event.

Such a submitter might be perfectly responsive to actual work on a bug 
while really pissed off by getting the bug closed.

Look e.g. at #10865 that had a 1 month gap in submitter responses,
but the actual problem is that noone of us ever bothered to look at
this Oops...

I just did a run through all open 2.6.26-rc regressions, and I did not 
find a single one where we seem to be waiting for some time for an 
answer of the submitter. [1]

       "Only a promise," Lao Er said.
