[sakai2-tcc] Performance issue lable in Jira

Wed Mar 13 07:43:34 PDT 2013

To make it an official proposal by lazy consensus, I suppose we should have a date by which the vote is completed. 

Voting needed by Friday, March 15

Proposal - use label for "performance" issues. Revisit in several months to see if it is working okay. Notify i18n and ay11 of the experiment using labels, for potential future use instead of components.

Two +1's so far.

Cheers,
Neal

I think the component vs labels issue makes sense (since I suggested it, not much of a surprise), but on the other hand I think the i18n and accessibility groups are using components to label Jiras, and I wonder how disruptive it would be to suddenly have them switch?

This way will not have a disruption, but if it looks like the best way to go, we can start a conversation with i18n and a11y to see how they feel about switching?

Mistakes by ommission and commission will always occur no matter what the process, because we have a dynamic community of humans, who are not all as equally immersed in Sakai-land and Jira-land. Labels are easier to use across projects and do not require any administrative setup.

Toying with the idea of a proposal to the TCC/CLE. Do I dare? ;-)
