A bug is a bug and if the one who has reported it has lost the interest in it months/years later - usually because not working on the project anymore - should not matter. But maybe the mentality of a commercial product is different than mine. > When do you consider a bug report “lost”?

If the state would be true, I don't have a problem with it. But I can't remember any bug report, that ever left this state after being there for longer than - let's say 2 weeks. Actually I already stopped reporting bugs in areas, where you end up with assignees, that are known as a pseudonym for /dev/null. F.e the QPA/EGLFS stuff is full of problems, when working with multiple touch screens. But obviously this is a rare combination and the Qt Company seems not being interested - or lost the competence - in fixing it.
