How do I request core maintainers attention in drupal.org issue queues?

Question

A white ago I have discovered a bug in Drupal. However, in my attempt of fixing it, I ran into a few walls. The main reason probably being that I miss history (e.g. why several decisions have been made).

It there a tag, status, or anything else to signal the core maintainers that I am stuck in resolving the issue?

Answer 1

There is a list of usable tags here : https://www.drupal.org/issue-tags Browse this and the following pages to get an understanding of using tags in the issue queue. You could also mention the bug in irc on freenode #drupal-contribute. You can tweet about it. Or you could post a link to the issue here!?
