Hi Markus, I checked with Nazeer and Myrle regarding the procedure to close a pull request from our side.
Currently, the only ways to close a pull request is by either merging it or if the sender of the PR closes it. Can you add Nazeer / me / Myrle as a collaborator in Github Project -> Settings -> Collaborators so that we can close the PRs which can't get merged? With best regards, Avik.
