RE: Hacktoberfest

[Dr. Matthias St. Pierre]

Given the fact that only one person asked for it and that only ten days are 
left in October,
I think the label solution might be the simpler one for the moment. (Assuming 
that adding
Topics to the project requires a vote?) The label has already been created and 
is ready
to be applied, to make the person happy which asked for it. In November, the 
label can
be removed again.

In general, I agree that GitHub Topics are a better solution. If we decide to 
participate
officially next year, we should take the time to inform ourselves in advance 
and announce
our participation in form of a blog post (I volunteer). Also, GitHub Topics 
should be discussed
in more generality, i.e.,  what's our benefit of using GitHub Topics, and which 
topics we
should add to the project. Up to yesterday, I didn't give GitHub Topics much 
thought.

There has been a request in 
#13172 to tag the PR for 
Hacktoberfest.
There are two ways 
to do this: add a tag to the PR or a topic to the project.

Is either something the project is interested in doing?

Rather than polluting our already busy tags menu, the topic seems the easier 
path to me.
