I can understand the frustration of "being on the outside" of said interface; I was there for many years. As someone "on the inside", I can tell you with complete confidence that your bugs do not fall into a black hole. It only seems that way. If the engineering team(s) need more information from you, you will receive email with questions, etc...

I'm of the mind that if a bug hasn't been fixed in a few years and a couple of major releases of Mac OS X, it's pretty much in that black hole. ;-) Seriously, I think some bugs do just get pushed onto a perpetual back burner and never get resolved or closed. I have several open bugs going back to Dec 2001 (rdar://2833846) that I have no reason to believe are still being discussed. Many were filed in 2002 and 2003 and based on the nature of the bug I don't expect anything to ever be done with them. Sure seems like a black hole to me. ;-)


I know others see the same thing. I think people would be less inclined to get discouraged about filing Radars if more bugs were closed, even if they aren't going to be fixed.
