Questions re Documentation in Bugzilla

No, the bugs are being seen. For example, I regularly check the list  
of "New Bugs" on the "Browse Product" page,  
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=GnuCash and if a bug  
contains an attached patch, I check those even more regularly.

The "assigned developer" simply means this guy has at some point in  
time agreed to be marked as assigned developer. However, many of those  
people have since left the gnucash project, but nobody else has  
volunteered to be marked as the assigned developer. It would be more  
"honest" (or obvious) to have no assigned developer in that category I  
guess...
