Test-infra: Let's not suggest -misc teams

Created on 26 Jun 2017  路  7Comments  路  Source: kubernetes/test-infra

In general, we'd prefer if people mentioning teams would mention them by using one of the following suffixes rather than misc:

  1. bugs
  2. feature-requests
  3. pr-reviews
  4. test-failures
  5. proposals

Can we change the error message here to reflect this preference rather than suggesting the use of the misc suffix.

There are no sig labels on this issue. Please add a sig label by:
(1) mentioning a sig: @kubernetes/sig-<team-name>-misc
e.g., @kubernetes/sig-api-machinery-* for API Machinery
(2) specifying the label manually: /sig <label>
e.g., /sig scalability for sig/scalability

_Note: Method (1) will trigger a notification to the team. You can find the team list here and label list here.
The asterisk has to be replaced with one of these: bugs, feature-requests, pr-reviews, test-failures, proposals_

While the other team aliases are more specific, I'm not sure they've quite got the adoption. For example, for our own contribex, hitting feature-requests hits 5 people, vs -misc that hits 21. This would be the same for sig-testing (7 vs 18).

Is there a way we could encourage adoption if we continue down this path? or is it preferred to just move to mentioning a user and it sends to an e-mail list path (which I believe had started to be implemented, but not sure if it was ever finished).

@xiangpengzhao I was suggested to have *. Please refer PR #3232 why we decided to have *.

@cblecker I could encourage adoption of other teams by deleting the misc teams. :-)

And hitting more people is not a good thing. Hitting the RIGHT people is what's important.

This was addressed. I'm going to
/close
this issue. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
