Hi all,
I want to discuss a topic with you, that we are currently seeing. It is concerning IP tickets for 3rd-party library checks created via
the Eclipse Dash tool.
As you know, the automatic ticket creation process can only be used by committers, since you need an GitLab API key to use with the
‘-review’ option.
Most of the issues are handled by the Dash bot automatically, but some might stay open for a while longer or it is even asked to help
out by providing source links for example.
For me, it is hard to keep track of which ticket I opened for which team. So If there is Help wanted, I struggle to find the right one
to ping.
I want to ping the team, because even If I created the issues, it’s in the teams responsibility to keep track of them and it’s also
easier for someone familiar with the language/build ecosystem to find the appropriate sources, if needed for the ticket.
To make keeping track easier for us, I would propose the following:
- Each time a committer is running Eclipse Dash and IP issues are automatically
opened, the committer opens a GitHub issue on the repository the scan was done for
- Contents of the GitHub issue are all of the IP issue links that have been created.
I think one ticket for all should be fine
- The GitHub issue is labeled with ‘3rd-party libraries’ or any other good suggestion,
that would make it easy for us to find all issues across the eclipse-tractusx org.
What do you think about this proposal?
Best regards
Sebastian
