The meaning of the labels

jantje edited this page Apr 15, 2016 · 4 revisions

We tag issues with labels and here we explain what those labels mean: Note that there is no process to give or take labels. As such the label reflects the perception of the label giver and not the community.

domains:

Status:

status: waiting for sponsor @ patreon

means: "It doesn't bother me, I don't think this affects enough people to bother the community, unless someone in the community steps forward as sponsor for this issue, this issue will not get attention from me."
This does not mean; that if you create a pull request it will not be accepted because of "no sponsorship".

To be entitled to be a sponsor you have to be a regular contributor or a patron sponsor of at least 1 dollar/month (exclusive VAT) on patreon. https://www.patreon.com/jantje?ty=h
Be honest to yourself. If you feel supporting this community with 1 dollar a month (exclusive VAT) is not worth it. Then this issue can not be important to you!! So why did you bother to create an issue in the first place?

status: Arduino IDE plugin incompatibility

The "sketch" "works" in arduino IDE but not in Eclipse.

This issue is already tracked somewhere else. The issue should contain a link to the "duplicate" issue.
