PRs and reviews actvity

[Jens Geyer <je...@apache.org>]

@all,

we have a queue of several PRs on Github that are open for quite a while 
now. I probably overlooked something but these are the data I collected 
right now. Especially for a project like Thruft it is hard for the few 
active maintainers to do all that work. Very few people are willing to 
spemnd valuable life time on immersing themselves into 10, 15 or 20 
languages enough to be able to do a qualified PR. So we all have our 
specialties and that's fine. But it also implies, we definitely need 
more hands on deck to deal with those incoming PRs in at least /some/ 
timely manner.

Most open PRs we have are related to three very mainstream languages so 
we theoretically should have enough people around already who could do a 
review:

- C++: 7
- Java: 7
- Python: 7

Then we have a second group where there is probably not too many people 
around and/or these PRs just did not catch enough interest (ie. Go,Rust)

- Go: 2
- Rust: 2
- Ruby: 2
- Swift: 2
- Javascript: 2
- Erlang: 1

Also we have a number of CI-related PRs. Here we also have the 
additional issue that Travis is no longer available which is a set-back 
to the CI as a whole - aside from the fact that constant changes also 
caused lots of trouble with it over the years before. So I'm personally 
not really sure what to do with these.

- CI: 5

Have fun,
JensG

I am looking for help in making
https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/2787 work, from experts of Python
libraries.

As a context, I am trying to migrate the current CI into GitHub actions
by introducing per language CI steps. So far compiler itself, libraries
including Java, Kotlin, rust, and Swift are covered. While trying to
enable Python I hit a block around passing SSL socket tests. 

Ideally this should be merged along with an effort to remove support for
Python 2 which has reached EOL long time ago.
