labels are good in JIRA for things that span components, even transient tagging 
for events like "hackathon". Don't scale to personal/team use in the ASF; 
that's what google spreadsheets are better for

Now, what would be nice there would be for some spreadsheet plugin to pull JIRA 
status into a spreadsheet

Well, if we consider the worst case scenario, and we have a jira, let's say
with a few labels, what harm does it make ?

I think the risk is everybody starts following this, then this will be
unmanageable, given the size of the number of organizations involved.

The two main labels that we actually use are starter + releasenotes.

Yeah I think using labels is fine -- just not if they're for someone's
internal purpose. I don't have a problem with using meaningful labels
if they're meaningful to everyone. In fact, I'd rather be using labels
rather than "umbrella" JIRAs.

Labels I have removed as unuseful are ones like "patch" or "important"
or "bug". "big-endian" sounds useful. The only downside is that,
inevitably, a label won't be consistently applied. But such is life.

We have used for other things in the past, like to identify the big-endian
related issues

The issue with maintaining anything locally is that then it's not easily
sharable (e.g. I can't just send a link to a query)



The question is more like, what issues can be caused by using labels ?

Re: Labeling Jiras

[Sean Owen]

I don't think we generally use labels at all except "starter". I
sometimes remove labels when I'm editing a JIRA otherwise, perhaps to
make that point. I don't recall doing this recently.

However I'd say they should not be used to tag JIRAs for your internal
purposes. Have you looked at things like JIRA Client from Almworks?
It's free and I highly recommend it, and IIRC it lets you manage some
private labels locally.

Labeling Jiras

[Luciano Resende]

I recently used labels to mark couple jiras that me and my team have some
interest on them, so it's easier to share a query and check the status on
them. But I noticed that these labels were removed.

Are there any issues with labeling jiras ? Any other suggestions ?
