Currently, our stalebot is configured to close issues if there's no activity for too long. While that helps us manage the number of open issues, it's also frustrating for developers when we can't get to their requests in time.
We're changing the bot to just flag the issues when they go stale, but not close them. This will let us tell which issues are still relevant for partners while keeping them around so we can re-evaluate them more easily, and developers can simply comment to remove the label if they're still experiencing an issue.
