     38 ## GitHub Milestones
     39 
     40 We use [GitHub Projects](https://github.com/orgs/microsoft/projects/137) to broadly organize what we intend to work on.  Issues will be added to milestones when we're reasonably confident they will land in the next milestone. Dates in [GitHub milestones](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/milestones) are only used for sequencing and do not represent a commitment.

     52 ## Issue Triage & Prioritization
     53 
     54 Incoming issues/asks/etc. are triaged several times a week, labelled appropriately, and assigned to a milestone in priority order:
     55 
     56 * P0 (serious crashes, data loss, etc.) issues are scheduled to be dealt with ASAP.
     57 * P1/2 issues/features/asks assigned to the current or future milestone.
     58 * Issues/features/asks not on our list of the features of next release is assigned to the [Windows Package Manager Backlog](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/milestone/2) for subsequent triage, prioritization & scheduling.
     59 
     60 #### Feature Priorities will be influenced by community feedback on issues.
