Perhaps it could be adaptive? If people want more frequent reminders than monthly, there could be a setting to speed it up. If a bug remains untouched between two monthly reminders, future reminders could speed up to every 2 weeks, then every week, then maybe QA steps in. Even with busy schedules, that would leave almost 3 months from the time a bug is filed for the developer to fix it, which isn't unreasonable at all. If there is a cron job running weekly, it wouldn't be that hard to keep track in the database of who needs to be emailed that week and who can wait a few more weeks for the montly reminder.
