# Triaging Github Issues
Incoming issues should all have the `bug` or `enhancement` labels.
From that point we need to make sure they become actionable.
## `bug` labeled issues
There can be 2 states:
* We have enough information to act on it. It means that it is reproducible or there are *really* enough information such that somebody else (not the reporter) can work on a fix. We add `approved` label to it.
* We are missing information to act on it. We add an explicit message asking for information and we add the `needs info` label.
Everybody should keep in mind that github issues are not a support channel. Customers of Nextcloud GmbH should go to the support portal and community people should go to [help.nextcloud.com](https://help.nextcloud.com). We cannot afford to spent time doing support on github issues.
If this is done consistently, we can see what bugs need a fix. That is not preventing a bug to be fixed without realizing and still will require the list to be periodically curated for no longer reproducible issues.
Once somebody plans to work on it, the `1. to develop` label can be added. That would be mostly done by employees of Nextcloud GmbH and not necessarily community contributors.
## `enhancement` labeled issues
There can be 3 states:
* We have enough information to act on it and the solution is obvious and just need to be done: we add `approved` to it.
* We have enough information to act on it. The solution implies some discussions (team members, server, design, other relevant stakeholders). We add `discussion` to it.
* We are missing information. We add an explicit message asking for it and we add the `needs info` label.
Once somebody plans to work on it, the `1. to develop` label can be added. That would be mostly done by employees of Nextcloud GmbH and not necessarily community contributors.
## other issues
Those are mostly for our internal use and synchronization or special handling.
Keep in mind that the information there should be useful for community members.
