We currently use a modified Sensible Github Labels list of labels: https://github.com/Relequestual/sensible-github-labels. I'd like to continue to use that as the basis, and not have similar/overlapping labels to keep it consistent across the org.

Broadly though, this looks good.

I'd like to have all new issues have a triage label.

I feel we should use all the severity labels defined. I think "priority" makes better sense given it's not nesecerily an issue of severity.

Whatever we end up with, we also need to make sure it is applied to all active repos, which includes making sure they have the labels and an updated readme, which may just direct to this document.

I think this is a great first start, which puts us in a much better place than previous. Let's re-work per my comments. (Obviously, more comments and reviews welcome.)

Thanks @Relequestual . Sensible GitHub labels are pretty flexible and cover most use cases. Is there any place where we have documented what is the modification we are using? I just found : https://github.com/json-schema-org/json-schema-spec?tab=readme-ov-file#status
