Each issue has exactly one **area-*** label + * Motivation: Issues with multiple areas have loose responbility (everyone blames the other side) and issues are double counted in reports. 1. Issue has no **Assignee**, unless someone is working on the issue at the moment + * Motivation: Observation is that contributors are less likely to grab assigned issues, no matter what the repo rules say. 1. Use **up for grabs** as much as possible, ideally with a quick note about next steps / complexity of the issue 1. Set milestone to **Future**, unless you can 95%-commit you can fund the issue in specific milestone + * Motivation: Helps communicate desire/timeline to community. Can spark further priority/impact discussion. 1. Each issue has exactly one "*issue type*" label (**bug**, **enhancement**, **api-needs-work**, **test bug**, **test enhancement**, **question**, **documentation**, etc.) * Don't be afraid to be wrong when deciding 'bug' vs. 'test bug' (flip a coin if you must). The most useful values for tracking are 'api-*' vs. 'enhancement', 'question', and 'documentation'. 1. Don't be afraid to say no, or close issues - just explain why and be polite |
