Hey @parasharrajat, I’d say this is a good discussion Slack channel if you’d like to bring it there! (Probably won’t get many eyes on it here)
@sophiepintoraetz / @thienlnam this was my bad, I created the issue with the AutoassignerTriage label accidentally (I pressed
ctrl + enterwhich created the issue before I was done 🤦). We have been instructed that issues created on the #Expensify-open-source channel should have theengineeringlabel from the start. My apologies for the confusion and the unnecessary bump 🙇♀️@parasharrajat 🟢 on the proposal, I don’t think there is currently an upwork job for it yet but once that gets created we’ll assign you to it
@sophiepintoraetz Ah my bad, I should have caught that - I didn’t check the sequence of events and just went ahead with the process
