Yes, but it is also quite common for pull requests that *are* 
being maintained to get stalled for weeks or months, simply 
because no one with the right skills/merge rights can find the 
time to respond.

It's not uncommon to find pull requests whose last few messages 
are mostly just "pings" from the author, separated by weeks or 
even months, trying to get someone to finally review/merge the 
thing.
