+### Stewardship
+
+For issues related to the open source stewardship of GitLab,
+there is the ~"stewardship" label.
+
+This label is to be used for issues in which the stewardship of GitLab
+is a topic of discussion. For instance if GitLab Inc. is planning to remove
+features from GitLab CE to make exclusive in GitLab EE, related issues
+would be labelled with ~"stewardship".
+
+A recent example of this was the issue for
+[bringing the time tracking API to GitLab CE][time-tracking-issue].
