Looking back at my statement I can see how it can be mis-construed. I didn't mean that the KDE users weren't pulling their weight in debugging. In participation I clearly meant numbers of user and bugs filed, which also might be wrong. That is why I suggested looking at bugzilla. Obviously the proper solution to this isn't to discuss the holy trinity, but for the original poster to file a bugzilla and get the issued resolved.
