Thanks for the feedback! My thinking is that I don't want to bug people
too soon, but there's a maximum number of days a thread should be idle.
Over the course of the CF that has gone from 10 days, to 7, 5, and 3.
I don't look at all patches every day so it can be a bit uneven, i.e.,
all patches are allowed certain amount of idle time, but some may get a
bit more depending on when I check up on them.
Thanks,
