Hi @yuin,
This is to discuss the possibility of disabling stalebot on this project.
For a widely used library like this, it doesn't add much value, hides possible bug reports, and discourages contributions.
Multiple legitimate issues have been closed as stale, e.g.:
I want to be clear that I recognize that this is an open source project and you don't owe these issues and PRs your time. I also understand the desire to keep the issue and PR backlog small.
However, I believe that enforcing Stalebot in such a way hides issues that others might have, it discourages contributions, and removes an avenue for community collaboration.
