[sakai2-tcc] Performance issue lable in Jira

[to answer Megan and Aaron]

I just did a search on all CLE projects using the Performance component which are not closed. I came up with one project.

Here is my query: project in (SAK, BLTI, HYB, KNL, MSGCNTR, POLL, PRFL, RES, SAM, SRCH, STAT, LSNBLDR, MSND, SHORTURL) and component = Performance and status != closed

I think I may have put the component there :-p .  And it has the label as well, Performance.  

So, yes, the proposal would be to remove the Performance component from all issues in Sakai CLE projects which are not closed. 

What happens with the old components? No change on existing components for closed tickets.
Does this include i18n or only performance? No, only performance 
What are the tags we are using (short would be good for ease of use IMO)? I was proposing the use of the word "Performance" but open to other ideas. 

We might be able to anticipate other management issues, but I suggest we just try it and see if we actually run into any issues. Review in 6 months. 

If it seems like a sensible way to go then I would suggest discussing with i18n group, at a later date, about using a label of perhaps, "i18n".  But for now, no change to internationalization and continue using component.

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?

Labels are easier to use across projects and do not require any administrative setup.
