Please do not read too much into lack of response.  It may be caused
by many things, including (certainly non-exhaustive):

 (1) the message may have been un-understandable and/or did not look
     interesting enough to ask for clarifications and more info to
     produce a useful response,

 (2) the message may have been delivered in a hostile tone that
     people chose to ignore even though it raised a valid issue, or

 (3) the message was simply missed because everybody was busy doing
     other things.

By default, everybody should assume the last one.  Re-raising the
issue after some cooling-off period would be a good strategy.

Thanks.
