Qubes OS Github Issues recent changes and developments

There has been some recent development for the existing issues on Qubes OS primary issue tracking qubes-issues repository.

  1. All issues with r4.1 tag are closed by bot (details here). This reduced the number of open issues to ~1700 (from ~2100). If you have had any favorite issue which is still valid for the current supported release which is automatically closed, you could comment on it to be reopened.
  2. In addition to labels, a type is assigned to each issue (bug, feature, task, no type). Unfortunately the “Last Updated” time for each issue is also changed by this operation and all issues are re-reshuffled. This is a minor annoyance as sorting by “Last Updated” is meaningless at this moment. If the bot had done this sequentially (instead of by each label), the “Last Update” status should have been preserved.

Sorry, that was me, not a bot. I’m not aware of a way to program a bot to do it sequentially, which is why I’ve just been doing it manually. :frowning:

If anyone knows if this is possible, please let me know (at least for future reference).

I plan to delete the “type” labels once they’re completely redundant.
