 Our bug tracker utilizes several labels to help organize and identify issues. Here's what they represent and how we use them:
 
+- `awaiting reply` - Issues that are awaiting reply, will be closed if there is no any response in 7 days.
 - `browser bug` - Issues that are reported to us, but actually are the result of a browser-specific bug. These are diagnosed with reduced test cases and result in an issue opened on that browser's own bug tracker.
 - `confirmed` - Issues that have been confirmed with a reduced test case and identify a bug in Bootstrap Table.
 - `css` - Issues stemming from our compiled CSS or source CSS files.
