IMHO, there is a difference when you get 100 mails now because we want to clean up the current "mess" or when you get 5 mails per week when we do this regularly. > BTW, I dislike the "noise" the discussed "3 strikes" solution will > cause. I'm thinking about a different solution: I am against 3 strike solution as well :-) My opinion is that it would cause to big traffic and do not help much. If people does not react for the first warning, there is only small chance that they would react on the second or third one. > Strike 1: > Query will find NEEDINFO bugs untouched for a long time and fulfilling > some additional "hopeless criteria". > Reporter's of these bugs will get polite mail with request to contribute > additional info that we will have to close the bug without additional > info.

There are different reporters, so we will not touch the same reporter in each round. IMHO, the most important is to give user chance to answer before the first warning (30 days or so).
