Ismael Juma commented on KAFKA-3630:
------------------------------------
It sounds like a good idea although 15 days seems too short for me. I'd
probably go for 30 or 60 days (leaning towards the latter).
> Consider auto closing outdated pull requests

> Key: KAFKA-3630
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3630
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Grant Henke
>
> Currently we don't have access to close pull requests and the list of open
> pull requests is growing. We are nearing 200 open pull requests and many are
> outdated.
> I am not sure if this is possible but I think a potential improvement would
> be to have a Jenkins job that runs periodically to:
> 1. Find all pull requests that have had no activity for 15 days
> 2. Comment on the pull requests that they were auto closed and should be
> re-opened if there is still interest
> 3. Close the pull requests
> I don't think closing the outdated pull request will hurt project progress in
> anyway because:
> - Jira still tracks the feature or fix
> - The pull requests likely need a rebase or feedback needs to be address
> - The notification will encourage the pull request owner and reviewers to
> follow up
> As of today the break down of older pull requests is:
> - [Older than 15
