Hey Tony,You have a number of Bazel design proposals in the "in review" stage, some quite old. Mind helping me make a decision as to what should happen to them?
- "OSS License Declarations" (2021 March): this predates Executive Order 14028, so I assume this should be dropped?
- "Starlark fail(errorcode=)" (2021 June): This is ancient, there was no consensus on it, so let's drop it?
- "OSS Licenses and Bazel Dependency Management" (2022 May): I suppose this is approved?
- "Renaming applicable_licenses to package_metadata" (2022 Oct): This is being implemented, let's approve it?
I still think it's the right idea for helping with I18N of error codes, but the bikeshedding headwind was strong. It was not a high enough priority to fight. "Deferred" as a new category?
- "OSS Licenses and Bazel Dependency Management" (2022 May): I suppose this is approved?
It's not really a design. It's more of a "read me first" before trying to design or implement anything. That does not fit the model of "draft -> review -> approved|rejected -> implementedPerhaps we add another section? Obsolete is wrong, but maybe "background reading"?

"Deferred" as a new category?My suggestion would be that if so far this has not gotten attention/traction, close it for the time being and reopen it if the time is right? That is the same thing as deferring, but we avoid keeping old proposals open forever (which I assume is one motivation for Lukacs to do the cleanup and which is something we are trying to achieve with old PRs as well).

Obsolete is wrong, but maybe "background reading"?For simplicity, call it approved then?
