I think what we discovered is that the amount of effort that was put
into *notifying authors of this new requirement* was woefully
inadequate. One email thread within the firehose that is
pgsql-hackers doesn't cut it.
How about having the cfbot send out some nagmail to patch authors,
saying "please move your patch forward, or close it if no longer
interested"? If nothing happens after a few rounds of that,
an auto-close could be justified.
