That's waiting for a review as seen. There have been few discussions about this. I am personally against closing only because it is old.
I have made periodically PRs to close other inactive PRs (e.g., not responsive to review comments or Jenkins failures). So, I guess most of such PRs are waiting for a review. How about drawing attention to the PRs you see a value on with a proper explanation and investigation, or try to review rather than suggesting just closing? I think anyone in this community can review. 2017-07-26 11:58 GMT+09:00 萝卜丝炒饭 <1427357...@qq.com>: > Hi all, > > I find some PR were created one year ago, the last comment is several > monthes before. > No one to close or reject it. > Such as 6880, just put it like this? > > > ---Original--- > *From:* "Hyukjin Kwon"<gurwls...@gmail.com> > *Date:* 2017/7/25 09:25:28 > *To:* "萝卜丝炒饭"<1427357...@qq.com>; > *Cc:* "user @spark"<user@spark.apache.org>;"Marcelo Vanzin"< > van...@cloudera.com>; > *Subject:* Re: how to set the assignee in JIRA please? > > I think that's described in the link I used - http://spark.apache.org/cont > ributing.html. > > On 25 Jul 2017 10:22 am, "萝卜丝炒饭" <1427357...@qq.com> wrote: > > Another issue about contribution. > > After a pull request is created, what should creator do next please? > Who will close it please? > > ---Original--- > *From:* "Hyukjin Kwon"<gurwls...@gmail.com> > *Date:* 2017/7/25 09:15:49 > *To:* "Marcelo Vanzin"<van...@cloudera.com>; > *Cc:* "user"<user@spark.apache.org>;"萝卜丝炒饭"<1427357...@qq.com>; > *Subject:* Re: how to set the assignee in JIRA please? > > I see.
