Moving DT Issues to Discussions #53377
Comments
|
Has this transition stalled? There are 684 open issues, some untouched in TEN years, overshadowing the 18 infrastructure issues |
This seems to have failed, OP is no longer in this team @peterblazejewicz should probably close this. |
I got pretty far with this, but it was a manual effort (we opted to leave issues which had tags in the script) and then redirecting the right ones to disucssions just wasn't worth it on a day to day basis as people made new issues and ignored the change |
Makes sense. Should this issue be unpinned then? |
For what it is worth, I think the effort wasn't strong handed enough, disabling issues or heavily restricting their creation / requiring escalation would've likely been a more effective measure, but hindsight is 20/20 as usual. Thanks for taking action on this and all your work ❤️ |
Also we should likely unpin this issue? |
Hi folks, after going through the most recent user feedback for DefinitelyTyped in microsoft/TypeScript#44030 - we came to the conclusion that moving the DefinitelyTyped issues to use the new GitHub Discussions feature on this repo.
Issues have been an OK fit for the problem of 'this DT package has a bug', but increasingly more issues get no response and we'd like to try and re-frame how folks interact on this repo. Here's how we see it working in the future:
Roughly, if the problem is about a single @types/xyz package then it goes into GitHub Discussions where it can be classed as 'answered' by the poster, if the problem is systemic to DefinitelyTyped - then it's in GitHub Issues.
Next Monday (June 7th) is the switch day:
