### Triage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One member of TPA is assigned the "Star of the weeks" every other
|
|
|
|
week. The Star is responsible for triage, which occurs in GitLab, as
|
|
|
|
per the [TPA-RFC-5: GitLab migration](policy/tpa-rfc-5-gitlab) policy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But the Star also handles routine tasks and interruptions. In that
|
|
|
|
sense, it acts as a "[interruption shield](https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=1922541)" by taking care of
|
|
|
|
small, distracting tasks to let others focus on more long-term
|
|
|
|
projects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In that sense, the Star takes care of the above [routine tasks](#routine)
|
|
|
|
like server reboots, security upgrades and spam runs. It is also
|
|
|
|
expected to keep an eye on the monitoring system and organise
|
|
|
|
[incident response](howto/incident-response) when a more serious issue occurs. It is *NOT*
|
|
|
|
responsible for fixing *all* the issues and it is expected the Star
|
|
|
|
will assign work or ask for help in an emergency or if it is
|
|
|
|
overwhelmed.
