Another summit, another potential time to see if people want to change anything about the issue tracker. I would bring up:

- Dropping Stage in favor of some keywords (e.g. 'needs unit test', 'needs docs') - Adding a freestyle text box to delineate which, if any, stdlib module is the cause of a bug and tie that into Misc/maintainers.rst; would potentially scale back the Component box

+lots on adding a module field (independent of automatically adding maintainers to the nosy list, it would assist in "I just did a major cleanup of module X, are there any old bugs I can kill off").

Of course, it will take a while for the field to be filled in on existing issues, but even having it be possible would be very nice.

Cheers, Nick.
