Are you overwhelmed by organizing, sanitizing and prioritizing your issues? Do you know “where” your issues are? Can you tell where your longrunners are? And why? Do you need more detailed filter options in github? Then it’s Triage Party Time!
Our teams at Red Hat’s Open Services Group were facing some challenges. We do Dev, Ops, and AI, and we have a diversity of features to implement, bugs to fix, and services to manage. The result is a pile of issues that make answering these questions hard. So we thought about a common process to get there.
Let us take you on our journey and show you how we: Define the quality of an issue What stages issues and PRs need to pass How we plan things How we measure progress What tools we use
All of this while trying to make the process as natural and non-intrusive as possible, aiming to keep overhead to the minimum. We want it to feel more like a party than a burden.
To illustrate how fun this can be, we will do some real life issue refining and triage live on stage, so you can tell us if we managed to make this pleasant.
If you are involved in active projects hosted at github, come to this session to get some ideas on how to help manage them with less stress.
