As an interested contributor, I've opened a couple of pull requests, and
it's not always clear what the next step is for a non-project-member to get
things merged.

To see how other PRs (https://github.com/apache/maven/pulls -- currently,
'32 open') are being handled, I thought it might make sense to chart them;
chart attached.

Notable:
* a significant number were opened more than a year ago (as far back as
2014), haven't been merged and now have conflicts. Could they be closed?
* some more recent ones are mergeable, and approved. Can these be merged?
* for the other PRs in between -- do they need work, or would closing them
send a clearer message?

Thanks.
