Gabe Weaver requested to merge gweaver-master-patch-80328 into master

References: Product#3907

Why is this change being made?

Proposed Label Additions

Note: We are intentionally keeping the scoped label keys generic and not specific to any given year. This keeps the key evergreen and saves us from having to constantly update the underlying data model as themes and investments change over time.

Themes:

  • theme::sass availability
  • theme::horse
  • theme::security testing
  • theme::compliance events
  • theme::fedramp
  • theme::sod
  • theme::code review
  • theme::open shift
  • theme::geo improvements
  • theme::sass performance

Investments:

  • investment::hosted first
  • investment::workflow usability
  • investment::ci/cd leader

Next Steps

Once this MR is merged and the initial set of labels are :thumbs-up: :

  • Open an issue with engineering productivity to automate the mapping and application of the investment:: label based on the corresponding theme:: label.
  • Open an issue with the data team to add aggregation by theme and investment to the prioritization model and relevant dashboards.
  • Update this documentation to reflect and include the above two action items.
