To work more transparently, everyone is invited to the Needs: Decision meeting held every two weeks, and to report back here on the forum on what was discussed in each.
Today, we decided the following:
We update the GitHub labels, mainly merging the ‘Type: Enhancement’ label with the ‘Type: Feature request’ label.
We automatically apply the ‘Needs: triage’ labels for new feature requests, which will be discussed in community calls and/or needs: decision meetings. (Then the label either just gets dropped or gets replaced by ‘Needs: decision’ if a longer discusion is required.)
We update the Developer documentation on the GitHub wiki as well as the PR template, in line with the above.
@ByteHamster and I had another a-synchronous session to look at a bunch of issues with the ‘needs: triage’ labels. In that process, we were able to reach a conclusion on the following.
We also have exchanged comments on a bunch of other issues, for which we didn’t reach a conclusion yet, though. We’ll continue those discussions in the regular meetings.
