Hi Jan Thanks for adding this cap, I can see that the PR is merged now. But I don't think it's taking effect. Out of curiosity, I tested this after the merge and I was able to open 7+ PRs since then without any block/warning.
All 8 are still open, plus an older one. so, 9 are open in total. The cap should have been at 7. Is there something more needed at ASF-Infra side for this to take effect, or I may be missing something?
