@artalar so how do we proceed with this? Do you need any more info or any feedback?

[BANOnotIT]

https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-labeler might be a good idea to have this app installed

[artalar]

@BANOnotIT I'm finally ready to dive into this :) Will you update any conflicts and other things if needed?

[BANOnotIT]

Uhm... I would consider this thing as wip since I found a solution that can manage tags automatically

[BANOnotIT]

Could you review the tag system first? I mean the structure and check it there are any problems I might missed

@BANOnotIT my thoughts

• bug - for unexpected hurt runtime behavior of a library, it should be obvious.
• problem - for types issue, CI&CD problems, docs styles issues and so on. I think we should separate this kind of issues and bugs to prevent misunderstood about the quality of the product.
• docs is fine.
• good first issue is fine.
• refactor / task - don't get it, isn't is proposal?
• proposal is fine, but it could be task too.
• need info is fine.

What about CI also?

@artalar

• I propose using general Type Defect instead of bug and problem because we can define what exactly is behaving abnormally using Parts: package, docs or types. That's the main idea behind deviding Type and Parts
• refactor becomes T - Task. Tasks should be treated as a piece of work to be done: move files around, setup tests, change CI parts and other things.
• T - Proposal should not be Task. Proposal should be a discussion issue that implementing Tasks could be lined to.
• CI is Part.

Also in rust repo they use labels without spaces in format X-dead-beef with leading uppercased type letter and other part of the label kebab-cased to be easily handled by bots and people in filters. I guess that's a great UX thing. What do you think?

@BANOnotIT Hi! I don't want to create many labels. My experience in a regular job shows me that for actual work, task and bug is sufficient.

However, as we are a public project, we should have a couple of additional labels.

The help wanted label is needed to indicate that the issue could be addressed by an external contributor.

The problem / defect (up to you) label is needed for bugs that are not relevant to user functionality, such as documentation, CI, types or so on. This distinction is important for our marketing perspective.

[BANOnotIT]

Well I think unless we do some automation dependent on labels we don't really need a Scheme.

Can you elaborate how bug and separate problem/defect affects marketing?

Also, I wanted to rename "help wanted" because "good first issue" had a separate view in GitHub and we can employ it.

[artalar]

@BANOnotIT "Bug" is a common label that a new user investigates when trying to evaluate a library. If we have extra bugs for docs, CSS, CI, and so on, it will present the library in the wrong light, literally in the wrong way.

good first issue is ok, you are right.

@BANOnotIT one more thing. All proposals and feature requests should starts from https://github.com/artalar/reatom/discussions

@BANOnotIT ping

[BANOnotIT]

I added RFCs category in discussions but by default people will be creating Ideas discussions.

I also propose following actions for current labels:
https://github.com/artalar/reatom/labels/CI%26CD, https://github.com/artalar/reatom/labels/design, https://github.com/artalar/reatom/labels/docs, https://github.com/artalar/reatom/labels/tests just to be deleted

https://github.com/artalar/reatom/labels/proposal, https://github.com/artalar/reatom/labels/feature%20request, https://github.com/artalar/reatom/labels/investigate converted into Ideas discussions

New labels to be added are described in new CONTRIBUTING.md
