Hi Gerardo,

Thanks for bringing this up. This is actually a good point.

Recently we've moved the Apache Airflow repo to the Gitbox repo (
https://gitbox.apache.org/). Before with the Apache repo, the Github repo
was just a mirror of the Apache one. Now we do everything on Github itself.
We still need to hook up the hooks to automagically close a Jira issue when
the PR is being closed. This would work very well combined with the stale
robot.

For the Jira tickets itself, sometimes one of the committers goes through
the list of open tickets. I did that two month ago or so. We don't have an
explicit process in place to be honest.

I think in terms of contributing, checking stale PR's would be awesome of
course.

Cheers, Fokko

Ps. If you're looking for a new ticket, the CI still needs to cache the
Docker images instead of pulling them every time ;-)
