Have we looked at what a majority of our issues are getting stale from?

Just in openbmc/openbmc there is 467 issues. 281 are older than a
year and 78 are older than 2 years.<br>
Some of them are a lack of feedback from the submitter. A pretty
large percentage I don’t know if they are still an issue.<br>
<br>
I feel this many issues is unmanageable. From the stale bot
README:<br>
"<tt>In the experience of the maintainers of this app—and the
hundreds of other projects and organizations that use
it—focusing on issues that are actively affecting humans is an
effective method for prioritizing work.</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>To some, a robot trying to close stale issues may seem
inhospitable or offensive to contributors. But the alternative
is to disrespect them by setting false expectations and
implicitly ignoring their work. This app makes it explicit: if
work is not progressing, then it's stale. A comment is all it
takes to keep the conversation alive.</tt>"<br>
<br>
I feel strongly we should do something like this to manage our
issues.<br>
