These guidelines serve as a primary document for triaging issues in opensearch-benchmark and opensearch-benchmark-workloads project. For maintainers/contributors, it is a guide to ensure that we address all customer issues and address feature requests in a timely manner.
Every week a maintainer will be assigned on a rotational basis to conduct triage meeting. The meeting duration will be no more than 1 hour every Tuesday @1.30 PM PDT/3.30 PM CDT
Triage is a process of grooming issues with correct labels, assigning them owners if available, ensuring that the issues have all the required information so that they are actionable
The steps listed below are not exhaustive and can be updated. Start with opensearch-benchmark followed by opensearch-benchmark-workloads project. For each of these projects we can follow the below steps to triage Issues from different categories. Try to cover at least 1 Issue from each of the below listed category.
