Release reminder and milestone re-assigner #90

Open effigies opened 5 years ago

effigies commented 5 years ago

We have a monthly release cycle, and a common feature of each month is to remind people with open PRs that the release is coming up in 1 or 2 weeks, depending on when I remember to do it. And then, when the release draws nearer, I make a judgment call to mass reassign to next month's release. A useful bot would be to post a reminder on the PR at X days out from the specified release date, and then automatically move to the next month at Y days out, in the absence of activity.

This is more-or-less a variant of stalebot.

I'll like to work on this. Just restating and making things clear

  1. Post a reminder of release date on open PR.
  2. Update the release date in absense of activity .

Is this what you suggest ?

For (2), it would be actually to relabel the PR to the next milestone, rather than update the release date of the milestone.
