Dear Martin and Syd,
thanks for putting this together!
I added another column to
record how the current labels relate to the suggested ones. It is for the person who adds/renames the current labels (I volunteer for that).
I like to suggest three more labels which we recently added to the TEI repo:
i18n (or maybe better Group: i18n)
Group: Infrastructure
Status: pending (e.g. for issues where we asked the original proposer or someone else to provide an example or further explanation)
I wonder if your suggested ‘resp: council’ corresponds with the current ‘Council Responsibility’? We also have the label CouncilResponsibility in the TEI repo and I was wondering how exactly that is defined.
Best,
Martina

Betreff: Re: [Tei-council] labels for Stylesheets issues
Martin and all— Right, it won't matter for *assigning* the ticket, but it would be helpful later when reviewing one's assigned tickets. I was imagining this as an optional, handy classifier once you have a pile of these to work on. Sometimes
it just isn't clear from a quick scan of the issue which direction the conversion needs to go, and in those cases, when you've made a determination and then need to go back and work on it some unspecified while later, it might just help to know at a glance
which direction this is going.
Thanks,
Elisa

Hi Elisa,
Having thought about this myself, I don't think it's going to help
either; although the direction of the conversion is important for what
approach you need to take, it's not important from the point of view of
what you need to know; and the Stylesheets tickets need to be triaged
and assigned based on skills needed (among other things). Is there
anybody who would take a TEI-to-docx ticket but refuse a docx-to-TEI ticket?
Does anyone else have any opinions on the ticket categories? The list is:

> Having worked on one of these a year ago, it made a pretty big difference to clarify the direction of the conversion because a) it wasn’t immediately clear on the ticket and b) it made a big difference in how we had to proceed. I think having the capacity to mark that might be helpful even if it isn’t always used. Just two more labels after all.
