The main problem is finding experienced developers who spend time on
looking into bug reports.
There are already. IMO the problem is the development model.

There are tons new features in each new kernel release and 'tons new bugs'
which are not fixed during the release cycle nor in the .XX stable kernels.

Maybe after XX kernel releases there should be one just with bug-fixes
_without_ any new features , eg: cleaning bugs from bugzilla , know
regressions , cleaning up code , removing broken drivers and the like.
Won't work. You cannot force people to work on things they don't
find interesting, long-term.
