Sorting out Intl vs I18n labels, teams, and repos

[sam-github]

I think something is out of sync with naming, we seem to have both i18n and intl, but they mean different things in different contexts, and sometimes seem to switch meaning.

Repos:

• https://github.com/nodejs/i18n
• https://github.com/nodejs/Intl Described as the "new i18n", but its archived and the (old?) i18n above is not.

?!?!

Teams:

• https://github.com/orgs/nodejs/teams/i18n
• https://github.com/orgs/nodejs/teams/intl

These team's descriptions point to their corresponding github repos above, but that means that there isn't a team that refers to the node core i18n support. Does such a team exist, or is it just @srloomis all the time?

• https://github.com/orgs/nodejs/teams/core/teams

No team for ICU and related i18n APIs?

Labels:

• https://github.com/nodejs/node/labels/intl "Issues and PRs related to the i18n implementation"

The intl label is for i18n? That's not confusing at all... :-) can I rename the label to i18n?

I'm not sure what should be done with the teams and repos.... perhaps

• nodejs/intl should, in fact, be the new (and only) repo?
• And nodejs/i18n should be archived?
• And at-nodejs/intl should be the nodejs/intl team (as it is)?
• And at-nodejs/i18n should be the nodejs/node/core i18n team, associated with the i18n label?

• Could the Intl team be renamed @nodejs/i18n/api or some such?

can I rename the label to i18n

Yes, good idea.

this is the new i18n

https://github.com/nodejs/Intl Described as the "new i18n", but its archived and the (old?) i18n above is not.

I was trying to use the description of nodejs/Intl there as a redirection: Node.js Intl Team (see new i18n WG) with URL https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/issues/353. We could unarchive, reword, and rearchive the dechartered nodejs/Intl. @sam-github do you have suggested better wording?

replaced by the

https://github.com/nodejs/Intl - better?

@obensource @nodejs/i18n — I have requested to move the Intl team (now called i18n-api) under i18n — says it's pending approval.

[srl295]

I renamed the Intl label to i18n-api.

So now, i18n-api consistently refers to API related stuff.

@srl295 approved! 🚀

Actually there are a couple of others in @nodejs/i18n-api

@sam-github I think all issues are resolved here, close this? On the i18n-WG side there are issues such as nodejs/i18n#210 to improve the WG's docs and such, but I don't think that should keep this #813 open.
