Thank you all for the feedback on the proposal. I unassigned 371 idle (not updated within past 90 days) issues on 2022-07-12 [1]. It doesn't appear that this action has caused problems or confusion - please let me know if I've missed anything. There are currently an additional 31 issues that are now considered idle, and I'll update those in batch as well [2].
I've created a PR to document this project policy [3]. In doing this, it was noted that issues that are unassigned should probably not be left in a status of "In Progress". The PR addresses this, specifying that any issue that is "In Progress" should have an assignee, and issues lacking an assignee may be set back to a status of "Open" for consistency. Additionally, the PR proposes standardization of the usage of status and resolution code field values. Please comment on the PR as appropriate - it feels any concerns or suggestions are better coordinated there than via email.
