Thanks for reading in between the lines of what I said by the way. Removing
the naming convention is an implementation detail and my main concern is to
avoid putting contributors off with details that seem too nit-picky.

So the consensus is that: if no new data is provided for 3 months,
auto-close the issues ?
It would be fairly easy to build a bot to do that as well.
