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
