> We have many pull requests which have gone inactive for one reason or
> another. These accumulate over time and make it more difficult to track
> active pull requests. The idea is to have some policy and automation around
> cleaning up stale PR's.
> For example:
> * Add a comment after X weeks stating the stale PR policy and that this PR
> will be closed if there is no activity in X days
> * If there is still no activity after X additional days, close the PR.
> We should explore tools that are already built for this, such as
> https://github.com/probot/stale
