As an individual, I've often _directly_ contacted developers to express, 
or more often, pass on concerns.  Typically in response to complaints 
that they are no longer or hardly active.  I've even contacted you.  In 
that regard I've tried to make helpful suggestions, how ever if the 
developer isn't interested in my opinion, and contrary to rumor, there 
is little that I can personally do.

That is the exact oposite to going "behind someone's back".
