Review comment:
       Since it’s an Apache project contributors can’t apply the labels, so it’s up to committers to do it, so “compulsory” might be off putting to first time contributors. If the author is a committer they should do it, otherwise the reviewer does it. It’s compulsory for committers, but that’s a small group of people do it’s hard not to get the memo.
