contributors away. That's not the way to increase manpower.

Overall the "no response" query just passes the buck. Let's say we get that query down to zero issues. What does that give us? Now we have 500 issues with 2 responses. Sure, it makes further correspondence more likely, but it's not solving any real issues and making any measurably significant impact.
While I do think the "no response" query can be helpful, let's not attribute too much value to tiny tweaks of the tracker and reporting. Benjamin is right -- manpower is where we'll benefit the most, not in the manner we paint the current issue situation.
