Unfortunately this is not limited to doc PRs.  We do a little bit
better at ports due to the "maintainer" concept.

We definitely need more people working on both documentation and
getting PRs fixed.

I'd like to see this situation get fixed.  OTOH I am personally
overcommitted.

If you see anything that is especially stuck, feel free to add me to
the Cc: line.

It is also fair to note that many doc committers are using Phabricator
(https://reviews.freebsd.org) for patch submissions.  My view is that
it's slightly better for patch reviews and Bugzilla is slightly better
for actual bug submissions.
