The channel should get opened within a minute of your payment.
In some cases - especially with TOR only nodes or mobile wallets, my node can't connect to yours, so you'll have to connect to me. Please do this by adding me as a peer.

Nodes that got hit with an inadverted force-close
I configured my node to close channels where the peer was offline and had not sent any gossip for two weeks (14 * 24 * 60 * 60 seconds). Unfortunately I configured (14 * 24 * 60 seconds = 5.6 hours).
