I just added this to make it easier to find PRs to review.
I'm not sure if it is not redundant with the "needs contrib" tag on a PR.
I used "stale" if I was not sure if it's worth working on something and 
the author didn't respond for a while.
I haven't used it a lot yet.

I'm ambivalent about adding a "approved by one" (which I think is more 
explicit then "need one more") tag.

You can search for PRs and issues without comments - I recently did that 
to make sure everything had at least one ;)
I'm not sure you can search for the absence of tags. But I am planning 
to go through all issues tomorrow to see stuff
that I have missed. I'll be catching up today with all notifications 
that I missed this year because writing my ;)

Maybe having an list of statuses for PRs and issues that covers the 
common cases would be good, we just kind of had that discussion, right?

Issues can be bug|enhancement|new feature with status needs contributor, 
has PR or needs confirmation/discussion. It would be nice to see
if a issue has a PR, I think there is no way to do that from the search.

PRs need changes or reviews or are stalled (which is "needs changes" for 
a long time and no response) and then might "need contributor".


We could use "needs review" on issues and add a "has PR" tag for issues 
and a "one approval" tag for PRs.

I agree with Joel that switching between "needs review" and "needs 
changes" in a currently active PR is likely to be cumbersome.
