"Not using GitHub" is not an excuse for a PR to sit ignored when it has a
bug attachment. Anyone can view a PR anonymously and clone the remote from
the read-only https URL. There's no "using github" required for that beyond
clicking the link in the attached bug to see the PR and the remote
repository name. For the 202 "bug linked" (excluding "new package") PRs,
~50% are more than 6 months old. While that doesn't necessarily mean
they've been ignored (for the "not using GitHub" devs, the code could've
been merged that way without any interaction on the GH PR, then it would be
up to the submitter to close the PR), it still doesn't look great.
