I do love emojis. =) Any chance to make our systems more light-hearted works for me. I wonder if we can use them to replace or supplement the A- (etc) labels.
The only problem is that the urls get changed when you change the label name so if we add emojis then links can break. But you can add emojis to the description as well without breakage =P
A little off-topic, but I wonder if you could darken the background of the “final-comment-period” tag so the text changes back to white. (I’ve changed it on rust-lang/rust already). Compare:
If we could leave the T-teamname labels and the other rfcbot labels stable, that’d be good. Because they need to work across multiple repos they’re referenced with a string literal rather than a stable identifier.
Can you please give some notice if you add emojis to the S- labels (the PR ones)? They’re used by name both by bors (I think), highfive and the PR status tracking thing I’m working on.
As a side note, I’m not a big fan of having emojis on the label names: they don’t give any real benefit, and I frequently type label:A-something in the search bar (breaking my workflow).
urgent change: well explained, ready to go, but time sensitive
Best if you have some time in the near term to hack on it immediately
Expect to get pinged regularly via gitter or IRC =)
refactoring: clear goal, not time sensitive
Best if you have some time in the near term to hack on it
exploration: this is going to take some tinkering
These tasks are best for getting to know the system
But they will require regular investments of time probably to get done, and maybe some back and forth on the best design
I wonder if we might make those into labels instead, and use the scheme more regularly. I’m not sure those symbols are the best, but I like using an emoji to make it stand out when scanning.
