    All, let's not do this for multiple reasons;
    
    - by closing a PR which has not got attention we risk forgetting about it 
and losing the contribution
    - generally those of us who have worked for long in the community or have 
dayjob colleagues working in the community, have better chances in getting 
their PRs merged; for new contributors this pattern is not encouraging and 
certainly not welcoming if their PRs get closed just because it did not caught 
any attention in one month's time
    - our community works on the premise that everyone is a contributor working 
as per their convenience, interest and time, on top of this the developer 
community is not very large to ensure that all PRs will get attention or review 
within a months time of its arrival
    - the requirement of 2 LGTM on each review makes it too much 
process-oriented that costs time and efforts, sometimes fixes are small but 
getting them merged has taken more time
