It wasn't meant to be as offense, but I see some debian packages and their bug 
report and the maintainer didn't react in a countable period of time (e.g. 
boson-base). So I'm asking, I like the email approach as well, but sometimes 
you have to check somewhere else via web, so I take my time and do this.

Well, if it's possible to have email notification from your side to the 
package maintainer, why not implementing it :)
