Hello,
The current FLIP overview page [1] is kind of a mess and inconvenient to
modify. It requires a fair amount of manual work to get right, requiring
updates in multiple places.
I'd like to improve that, and experiment with the Page properties
(Reports) and labels to auto-generate the overview page.
I've already applied the changes to the Discarded FLIPs to that end, so
have a look at the bottom of the overview page.
In short, we can categorize FLIPs (what's currently done with the
"Status" line in the FLIP) via labels, filter them in the overview based
on that, and then extract page properties (aka, a special table in the
FLIP page) to populate a listing.
The end goal is that we will never have to update the overview page
manually.
I'd volunteer to migrate all existing FLIP pages of course.
