+New Feature Triage
+==================
+
+Identifying Feature Requests
+----------------------------
+
+Bugs which request new features or enhancements should be of
+type=\ ``enhancement``.
+
+Older bugs may also be feature requests if some or all of the following
+are true:
+
+-  Bugs with ``feature`` or similar in whiteboard or short description
+-  ``[RFE]`` in whiteboard, short description, or description
+-  Bugs not explicitly marked as a feature request, but appear to be
+   feature requests
+-  Bugs marked with ``feature`` keyword
+
+Initial Triage
+--------------
+
+Staff, contractors, and other contributors looking at new bugs in
+*Firefox::Untriaged* and *::General* components should consider if a
+bug, if not marked as a feature request, should be one, and if so:
+
+-  Update the bug’s type to ``enhancement``
+-  Determine which product and component the bug belongs to and update
+   it **or**
+
+   -  Use *needinfo* to ask a component’s triage owner or a module’s
+      owner where the request should go
+
+Product Manager Triage
+----------------------
+
+-  The product manager for the component reviews bugs of type
+   ``enhancement``
+
+   -  This review should be done a least weekly
+
+-  Reassigns to another Product::Component if necessary **or**
+-  Determines next steps
+
+   -  Close bug as ``RESOLVED WONTFIX`` with comment as to why and
+      thanking submitter
+   -  If bug is similar enough to work in roadmap, close bug as
+      ``RESOLVED DUPLICATE`` of the feature bug it is similar to
+
+      -  If there’s not a feature bug created already, then consider
+         making this bug the feature bug
+
+         -  Set type to ``enhancement``
+
+   -  Set bug to ``P5`` priority with comment thanking submitter, and
+      explaining that the request will be considered for future roadmaps
