The Gradle code base is essentially a large monolith, without strong internal boundaries.
This has a number of negative effects on productivity, including:

- Unclear ownership of code.
- Difficult to focus on one particular area.
- Unintended coupling between areas of the code, including tests.

## Decision

Organize the Gradle code base into a set of coarse-grained "architecture modules".

for including it in the “.0” release. Otherwise, the PRs will not be merged until after the release.
* For large fixes (>100 LOC that’s not from generated files), SMEs from that area must also approve the PR.

## Bug Fixes

* Bug fixes will not be merged in until the first release has been published, unless it addresses a critical issue.

## Issue management

We use GitHub to track all of our bugs and feature requests. Each issue we track has a variety of metadata:

- **Epic**. An epic represents a feature area for Istio as a whole. Epics are fairly broad in scope and are basically product-level things.
Each issue is ultimately part of an epic.
