Hi Pulsar Community, I am excited to start contributing as a committer! I have a question about our process for closing stale PRs.
We have ~300 open PRs right now. Do we have any guidelines on closing stale PRs? Of course we don't want to ignore important bug fixes, but we also don't want to clutter our repo with open PRs that won't get merged. For example, I reviewed this PR [0] about 3 months ago. The contributor has not yet responded to my feedback and it doesn't seem to fix an actual bug, so I think it is a candidate for closure. Here is another example [1]. I closed this one because it had merge conflicts with a commit that fixed the same underlying issue. Note that our committer guidelines [2] do not provide guidance on this subject.
