Even if you aren't a committer, you can work on them and add patches
to the PR.  Sometimes the experience is not rewarding as your patches
languish, unanswered even (people are trying to improve that situation
since it discourages contributors).  But often someone will grab them
if it has patches, especially if they've been touched by the problem.
Active occasional pestering sometimes gets action on a PR (but
sometimes the action is to close it ;).
