Hi everyone,

Till and I recently discussed whether we should disable the
"stale-blocker", "stale-critical", "stale-major" and "stale-minor" rules
for tickets that have a fixVersion set. This would allow people to plan the
upcoming release without tickets being deprioritized by the bot during the
release cycle.

>From my point of view, this is a good idea as long as we can agree to use
the "fixVersion" a bit more conservatively. What do I mean by that? If you
would categorize tickets planned for an upcoming release into:

* Must Have
* Should Have
* Nice-To-Have

only "Must Have" and "Should Have" tickets should get a fixVersion. From my
observation, we currently often set the fixVersion if we just wished a
feature was included in an upcoming release. Similarly, I often see bulk
changes of fixVersion that "roll over" many tickets to the next release if
they have not made into the previous release although there is no concrete
plan to fix them or they have even become obsolete by then. Excluding those
from the bot would be counterproductive.

What do you think?

Cheers,

Konstantin
