PROCESS CHANGE: add new ready-to-work and not-ready-to-work labels about community HOT 10 OPEN

Given the label I think the next step could be updating repo readmes to link to the CLOtributor page. And we should definitely call it out on the website

I personally like how this discussion evolved :) Looks like we just need to make use of help-wanted and good-first-issue labels more and also raise awareness to provide instructions in these issues for any newcomers.

To answer this question:

Though it looks like the Area tab only lets you filter for the docs repo - cc @aliok how do you add more 'Area's eg. Serving

https://github.com/cncf/clotributor#labels-with-special-meaning

There's no other area right now supported by CLOtributor.

Area

• docs: the issue has a label that contains the string docs or documentation.

from community.

but not every issue is a part of a project

This seems to be the crux of the problem no?

not every contributor will look at the projects to see if it is ready to work.

I'm curious how do you envision people discovering the ready-to-work label?

This problem sounds similar to #681

Yeah, I think so. However, I don't think that making every issue a part of a project would be a good fix to the problem. There are cases where there is a one off issue, or there are only one or two issues for a feature. In these cases I think making a project would likely be overkill.

I was thinking linking to a github issue query similar to https://github.com/issues?q=is%3Aissue+archived%3Afalse+user%3Aknative+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22 but with the newly created label.

WDYT @dprotaso ?

So I think we have what you want already in place - the help wanted label is used across repositories

And this feeds into a CNCF website contributors can go to https://clotributor.dev/search?project=knative&ts_query_web=knative

What's cool about the UI it lets you filter good first issues as well

cc @knative/technical-oversight-committee for input
