github labeling

[Andrew-Clement]

As mentioned, I appear not to be able to attach labels or create new ones, perhaps because I lack permission, or am missing something (due to approaching senility??)

I would appreciate being coached into this.

In the meantime, someone please add the following 9 labels to the existing ones:

critical major minor (related to Importance: ie the contribution it would make to project overall) immediate soon whenever (related to Urgency: how quickly it needs doing wicked hard easy (related to Difficulty: the time and resources needed to address the issue)

I propose colour coding each in the conventional red/yellow/green fashion, with red assigned to critical immediate and wicked (though perhaps the difficulty spectrum needs a different colour scheme??)

I'd welcome feedback on the appropriateness and usefulness of this labeling scheme.

Please label this item as: Issue Type: bug duplicate enhancement help wanted out of scope question wontfix Importance: critical major minor Urgency: immediate soon whenever Difficulty: wicked hard easy

You should see the words "labels" on the right side of the title of an issue.

Creating labels, got the the main issues page https://github.com/ixmaps/website/issues click on "Labels", then "New label"

Thanks Antonio,

While I see Labels where you describe:

it doesn't respond to being clicked, so it is not an active link for me.

Ditto here:

Is there some permission setting that would make it active?

BTW, how do you draw the the red lines for highlighting??

Hiya @Andrew-Clement... you should be able to add labels now. I created the difficulty and important sets, but suggest that the urgency be folded into importance. Conceptually they are quick similar and I think there would only be a few edge cases where something was of critical important but not an immediate fix.

Thanks Dawn,

However, I'm still not able to label, or assign, … I was already a member.

I see at https://github.com/orgs/ixmaps/people that I'm just a member and the rest of you are owners, so so I suspect this is an authorization setting that prevents me from these actions . I Could you try changing my status to owner.

Thanks.

Andrew.

Assign a label to an issue, click on the "gear" icon, not sure about your privileges?

[dcwalk]

This should be resolved! Can you reopen if you are still experiencing problems?

Thanks whomever, Dawn?, for inviting me as an owner with admin privileges. Seems to be working now.
