I am not sure I like auto-abandon, two main reasons being:

1) I do have a bunch of patches that I mean to return to, but are low
priority right now. I certainly would not like them disappearing from my
dashboard, although that would be okay if there was a 'My Abandoned
Changes' view.

2) We were bitten by 'abandon' before, where a patch was abandoned while
it was waiting for dust to settle on after a release. The end result was
a bug report for something that should have been fixed for 6+ months and
a wasted day digging through history to understand where the fix went
missing. Bug tracking should help here, but BZ is simply awful for
tracking things to be delivered to multiple branches.

At any rate, 6 weeks is definitely too aggresive.

Regards,
Robert
