Well, I've had some minor association with the type, so I can lend some insight...
When you're the developer, especially if you're the one writing the majority of the code, you really don't have time to read posts, no matter what the hype says. Most of your time is taken up with whatever project you're on. According to that post on the Heuristic Park board, D.W. and crew are already involved in their next project and have taken on making a patch for W&W on an unofficial, outside-normal-work-hours basis. This would naturally mean even less time to browse forums. I would suspect they have one or two people delegated to checking the Technical Forum for any new bugs, but that would be the limit of the time they could spare. Most of the problems we see here are game-related (read: Journeyman's Key), which can be handled by the players themselves, so I doubt you would see a reply by anyone officially connected to the game, even if they do manage to get here and read posts.
