Active whiteboard tags for RelEng
These are tags that RelEng adds to the Whiteboard field in bugzilla to help us search and group bugs better by area of effect/effort. Multiple tags can/should be used where appropriate.
- tegra
- bugs that affect tegra operations, status, or reporting
- releng-internal
- bugs that will improve/change our workflow and don't affect external infrastructure (usually these are enhancement bugs with no owner)
- buildduty
- quick machine setup issues, one-off developer requests, or ongoing problems that require monitoring
- slaveduty
- issues Slave Duty should worry about
- database
- bugs requiring work on our databases (scheduler_db, status_db, other)
- qa
- improve the quality of our releng infrastructure
- buildbot
- issues pertaining specifically to buildbot code, maintenance, improvements
- documentation

- hardware

- talos
- bugs related to talos
