For this part, I just added the following comment to 20 WFLY issues:
"This issue has been open for over a year and remains unaddressed.
'Critical' priority should be used for things we intend we intend to focus
on in a relatively short period, so the fact it is unaddressed for a year
is an indication the WildFly developer community doesn't see it as truly
critical.
If the assignee or a relevant component lead believes this issue should
continue to have Critical priority, please reply by July 31, 2024 with a
comment indicating when this issue is expected to be addressed. Absent that
I will downgrade the issue to Major."
I also added a 'downgrade-candidate' label, which is just to help me find
these issues again for follow-up in August.
I've just downgraded these. And yes, I know it's not August. :)
