Topic reporting for duty :)

I have no hard feelings about this... I just want to collect my 
garbage when my requests stall. I understand good coders are 
often too busy to go trough all waiting requests thoughtfully, 
and it's ok if something slips past. But there is just no reason 
I see to keep a request in "alive" state if I don't check it 
actively anymore. The closed pr can be opened later if I or 
someone else wishes to push for it again.

I think the issue here is that I don't remind often enough that 
I'm still waiting, or I do it at wrong place. What is the 
convention here?
