Re: [Tei-council] labels for Stylesheets issues

Good question! I think we probably also need a label for "documentation" somwhere in the mix; I don't think that particular ticket is a meta issue (i.e. an issue about issues themselves). How about target: documentation? Cheers, Martin On 2020-05-18 1:39 p.m., Scholger, Martina (martina.scholger@uni-graz.at) wrote:

Hi Martin and all,

Thanks for the explanation. I'm sure the hordes will arrive any day now : ) I added/modified the labels. Please feel free to change the colors if you don't like them or if they don't make sense.

I wonder if we can delete the label "Release Process" and add the label "meta" to this issue: https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/labels/Release%20Process.

Best, Martina

Hi Martina,

I like all your suggestions.

Re "Council Responsibility": IIRC, this arose out of the ancient dreadm whereby hoards of enthusiastic non-Council folks would emerge from the community and take ownership of the maintenance of various areas of the stylesheets repo, leaving only a few core areas to be the responsibility of the Council. I don't think that will ever happen, but there are things such as the Cocoa conversion and the custom profiles which I think it would be reasonable for Council to ignore in favour of higher-priority work. I think it would be reasonable to require that all tickets end up with one of the resp: values:

resp: council

resp: stylesheetsGroup (i.e. Council's job, but suitable for learning and teaching)

resp: helpWanted (i.e. anybody who cares about this should probably do it themselves)

Cheers, Martin

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

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:
