Hi everyone!

First of all, this may have come out before, and I understand it is really hard 
to keep a tidy house with so many different collaborations. But, I can't help 
the feeling that coming to the main Apache Cassandra repository and seeing more 
than 600 open PRs, some of them without activity for 5+ years, gives the wrong 
impression about the love and care that we all share for this code base. I 
think we can find an easy to follow agreement to try and keep things a bit 
tidier. I wanted to propose some kind of "rule" that allow us to directly close 
PRs that haven't had activity in a reasonable and conservative amount of time 
of, let's say, 6 months? I want to reiterate that I mean no activity at all for 
six months from the PR author. I understand that complex PRs can be opened for 
longer than that period, and that's perfectly fine.

What do you all think?

Bernardo
