I agree that none of this is yet defined, that's the point of the comm. While we can always keep iterating, I'm just erring on the side of frequent and transparent comms so that the entire community can have constant visibility. I still think we can ask people to partake in the Zulip to define this | 17:50:22 |
| raitobezarius | Like this can be the first question literally | 17:50:26 |
| raitobezarius | But I would advise not putting it in the comms | 17:50:31 |
 @joepie91:pixie.town | (I do not have an objection to the date, if it is just meant to specify when the next update is scheduled to be published, rather than setting a deadline for the community to do anything) | 17:50:49 |

| ronef | I have a few meetings tomorrow with folks from the wider open source ecosystem. So far haven't received any outside recommendations (I would love to go beyond my personal network!) so keep me posted if someone crosses your mind! | 05:22:29 |

So far haven't received any outside recommendations (I would love to go beyond my personal network!) so keep me posted if someone crosses your mind! please contact the Guix team if you haven't already: Simon Tournier, Ludovic Courtès, etc. https://foundation.guix.info/ | 07:40:58 |

 Arian | They seem to be at a very small scale though. Only 27 members. And most of their actual finances are being paid for by the FSF and are not even on their balance sheet. I'm not sure if there are enough parallels. | 11:52:59 |
| Arian | But still fun to talk with probably. | 11:53:31 |

I'm not sure if there are enough parallels. that's 6.75 times bigger than the NixOS Foundation and I'm sure they don't envy our spiralling AWS bill | 12:05:22 |

| nat-418 | * that's 6.75 times bigger than the NixOS Foundation and I'm sure they don't envy Nix's large infra bill. I see Guix as a sibling project of Nix, and it's probably good to reach out and ask how their experience has been with their association model. | 12:09:50 |

| @joepie91:pixie.town | ronef: I don't know if Deuxfleurs (the folks behind Garage) match our project structure close enough but it's probably worth reaching out to them, they seem to be doing well | 12:25:26 |
| infinisil | Note that governmence and assembly discussions on Zulip have started, see https://github.com/NixOS/foundation/issues/143 for how to join | 13:21:57 |
| ronef | Will reach out today, thanks!

| ronef | Since we have transitioned all governance related conversations to Zulip, all communications and discussions will be there.
I will try my best to keep other channels apprised as an FYI but please do sign up if you want to be up to date :)
Latest topic from our end is organizing open calls for the following few weeks that you can provide your availability for and I will do my best to schedule during times that fit the most amount of folks <3
