Huge +1 to this.
I think X=6m and Y=3m makes sense, as something as simple as adding a comment
refreshes it. As such, slightly longer than a normal Flink release cycle is a
good line in the sand (as Matthias has said)
Side note : Just thinking of a typical PR review process, PRs either fall in
Hi Rui,
Good point about recording the proposal. I am not sure it fits the FLIP process
so I made a page [1] under the CHI workgroup.
That page has a summary of the proposal and links to the discussion and vote

Thanks Tom for driving this discussion!

Best,
Rui

Y=3m might be alright in this regard.
Hey!
Big +1
I think this is a great initiative and we should follow the path laid down
by other projects.
Starting with X=1 year and Y=3 months is very forgiving, I personally
wouldn't mind immediately going more aggressive to clean up the backlog.
So for me X = 6m Y = 3m is also perfectly fine.
Hi Tom,
I like the idea of starting with X=1 year and Y=3 months. That plus having
CHI review recent PRs would be helpful.
Your suggestion of having a bot which "lints" naming conventions could be
useful. Maybe there could be a CHI-bot to automate what you and others are
doing manually. :)

TL;DR
- We have over 1.2k open PRs, this is an issue as it makes new contributors
think twice about committing and looks like a problem that is too-big-to-solve
for committers.
- There have been various attempts, over the last 6 years, to enable the Stale
PR bot/action to prompt authors to refr
