Backlog Aging Methodology

Age Buckets

Recent	0–30 days
Aging	31–60 days
Old	61–90 days
Stale	91–180 days
Ancient	181+ days

Staleness

Tickets not updated in 30+ days are considered stale. Staleness measures inactivity, while age measures time since creation.

Recommendations

High priority + stale → Needs immediate attention
Age > 180 days → Review and re-prioritize
Future sprint + stale → Update or remove from sprint
Age > 90d + no points → Needs refinement or closure
Low priority + stale → Consider closing

Ticket Scope

Included: Non-done tickets with no sprint or future sprint.
Excluded: Done/Closed/Resolved/Verified tickets and tickets in active or closed sprints.
