GitLab Bot currently adds missed milestone labels to deliverable issues that are still open after the feature freeze date. This is great unless the issue is not tied to code and does not relate to the feature freeze. (Example: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/39662) There are no exceptions in these cases. To overcome the bot, you either need to change the milestone or remove the deliverable label. We should improve this to account for issues that are not related to the code freeze but still deserve the correct milestone and are deliverables for the release. We could do this by adding a label that the bot can assess and skip the issue if it recognizes both the deliverable label and this new label. Open for other suggestions.
