Oleg, I would love to help -- couple of quick questions: The GH PR's are ~60 as you indicated, but the How To Contribute guide (Code review process -- https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Contributor+Guide#ContributorGuide-CodeReviewProcess ) shows a JIRA list with patches available.
Which should be reviewed first? For the PR's on GH are you just looking for code review or same process of apply local merge and test?

In large this is due to the fact that most of our efforts are spent in development as we all try to grow NiFi feature base. However we need to remember that PRs and patches will remain as they are unless and until they are reviewed/agreed to be merged by this same community and that is where we need help. While “merge" responsibilities are limited to “committers”, “review” is the responsibility of every member of this community and I would like to ask you if at all possible to redirect some of your efforts to this process. >We currently have 61 outstanding PRs and this particular development cycle is a bit more complex then the previous ones since it addresses 0.7.0 and 1.0.0 releases in parallel (so different approach to breaking changes if any etc.) > >Cheers >Oleg > -- Thanks, Andrew
