| === Creating Help Wanted issues |
| |
| Issues on the link:https://issues.gerritcodereview.com/hotlists/5395287[HelpWanted,role=external,window=_blank] |
| hotlist should be phrased as user stories and be well-scoped so that they can |
| be easily picked up by new contributors: |
| |
| * The issue title should name the feature and be prefixed with a t-shirt size |
| in square brackets to indicate the expected effort. |
| * The issue description should use Markdown and have the following sections: |
| ** *User Story*: Explain the use case that is being addressed and what's the |
| value of the feature. |
| ** *What*: Describe what should be done. |
| ** *Background*: Any useful background information, including ideas how the |
| feature can be done. |
| ** *Pointers*: Useful links to documentation and code |
| |
| Note, only link:dev-roles.html#maintainer[maintainers] and |
| link:dev-roles.html#contributor[trusted contributors] can add issues to the `HelpWanted` hotlist. |
