I have been talking to Grant about making the label changes for months now and I was under the impression that the notebook+JupyterLab team talked about this at the team meeting and were on board with this change. If that wasn't the case I apologize for moving forward with this. In case it wasn't clear, I am only touching labels on the jupyter/notebook repo.
The label changes were made a couple of week ago, but we can back off parts of it that are needed for backporting and migration. Realistically though, to migrate issues between notebook and JupyterLab in a meaningful way, we will need to have a uniform label taxonomy anyways. Not being able to change labels at all isn't viable. All of the old labels that existed have a corresponding label in the new schema. For example, we now have `status: Needs Backport`. If we need labels that are more "programmatic" for backporting (`backport-4.3.1`) we can absolutely add those back (I don't think jupyter/notebook had any of those). Can you clarify exactly what labels the migration tools are using and how? More than willing to accommodate all of that. I tried to look for details of the migration stuff but couldn't find any. Could you provide links? Keep in mind, we have almost 500 issues on the notebook repo, with relatively few developers. On JupyterLab, we have 4-6ish full time devs are have to work really hard to keep up with our 200ish issues there. In order to make notebook development sustainable and enable a smooth transition to JupyterLab, we need to reduce the number of issues to something that is manageable for the developers we have. The work you are doing on GH automation is going to be *super helpful* but there is no substitute for old-fashion human time spent going through issues (yes, I plan on figuring out how we can go through all ~500 issues on the notebook repo).
