**tl;dr: Today, notifications have been sent out for all issues that haven’t been updated in >1 year and those ~180 issues have been labelled as Graveyard_CANDIDATE.
During part of the TAC call on Sept 12, I will publicly coach PM Fellows @suruchi & @tendayi.mutangadura through our Jira Graveyard process (and anyone can join to watch & understand or voice concerns).
Please have a look at the issues that would be affected here and add a comment to any issues you’d like to keep open. (You’ll need to remove the “Graveyard_CANDIDATE” label as well.)
Here’s a good example of a helpful comment from @ibacherhere:
Our average issue age is >630 days. We’d still like to see this be <1 year.
On Sept 12, we’ll close all issues labelled Graveyard_CANDIDATE as “Won’t Fix”, and re-label them as “Graveyard-2022-09”. If someone wants to re-open an issue later, they can still do so.
(FYI @dkayiwa I tagged you on a fair number - I manually reviewed every single graveyard-eligible ticket that was marked blocker, must, or community-priority. I thought there were several that could be either good intro tickets or great for some fellows to pick up.
