5Ticket triage is a weekly, informal ritual that is meant to solve the problem of
6tickets getting opened and then forgotten about. It is simple and keeps project
7momentum going and prevents ticket cruft.

13-------
14- The role of Ticket Triager rotates regularly-ish, and is assigned ad hoc
15- The Triager needs a ``Trac`` account
16- The Triager looks at all the tickets that have been created in the last week (or month, etc.)
17    - They can use a custom query or do this as the week progresses
18    - BONUS ROUND: Dig up a stale ticket from the past
19- Assign each ticket to a milestone on the Roadmap
20- The following situations merit discussion:
21    - A ticket doesn't have an appropriate milestone and we should create one
22    - A ticket, in vanishingly rare circumstances, should be deleted
23        - The ticket is spam
24        - The ticket contains sensitive information and harm will come to one or more people if it continues to be distributed
25    - A ticket could be assigned to multiple milestones
26    - There is another question about a ticket
27- These tickets will be brought as necessary to one of our meetings (currently Tuesdays) for discussion
