As a new contributor I cared about how to make my contribution accepted by the community, some questions: 1) When will it get reviewed? Is there a rule about review timeline? 2) There are long backlog of pull requests, What happened if a pull request not get noticed, do we have some mechanism to make it moving forward, like a pull request will be assigned a owner of reviewer? Or we have a review queue and a pull request will be get handled fairly.
