 Tristan Ross | I kept it a secret that I'm wanting to run for a position on the foundation but now it's not because of the SC election. I've mentioned it to Tom and Ron a few times. | 18:56:04 |
 tomberek | @josw:matrix.org: Shaw and Flox have funded several things, often via Tweag or other Nix consultancies. Flox is funding the next Nix conference as well.
One of my goals is to improve the relationship between the community and industry, specifically to make it easier to have more common resources. We are beginning to be depended on for critical systems and thus need to establish beneficial relationships with our users. | 19:18:18 |

This probably should be a collaborative effort. | 19:24:10 |

 @josw:matrix.org | @tomberek:matrix.org: @rosscomputerguy:matrix.org: @vcunat:matrix.org: Thank you for the replies, I know who is working at Flox but not about the already done funding. That's great to read 👌
Perhaps it is possible to rent some rackspace overthere to secure us some base environment where we don't have to be afraid to have to move in the near future. Doing so to give some ease of mind... | 17:59:23 |
| tomberek | I'm not sure what you are referring to. What is it that you are looking to move? Which community concern are we looking at easing? | 22:07:32 |

I'm not sure what you are referring to. What is it that you are looking to move? Which community concern are we looking at easing? I think their concern was with Hydra or Ofborg | 23:37:11 |

Anyone? the need for a matrix room hasn't come up yet in our first discussions. what would be its purpose? | 00:00:15 |
| hexa | low-threshold communication channel? | 00:00:53 |
| hexa | same as here with the foundation | 00:00:59 |

| @josw:matrix.org | Indeed, reading too much different rooms, sorry for jumping in here and bothering you. It seems there is a change with the Equinix sponsorship and to me it seems to cause some disturbance. But that might only my own impression, then again there is also a topic on this in Discourse, https://discourse.nixos.org/t/infrastructure-announcement-the-future-of-ofborg-your-help-needed/56025
So I will leave this as is and return to only reading in here 😉 | 08:06:13 |
| tomberek | No, it is a fair question. The SC and infra team is looking into what can be done to support our compute needs. Regarding renting rackspace: Flox is a completely independent startup from its origins and does not have access to anything like this. | 08:20:58 |

low-threshold communication channel? I'd be in favor of having one | 13:24:37 |
| tomberek | We've got a zulip channel going. A Matrix SC channel for people to talk to us would be a good idea. | 14:35:46 |
| hexa | thanks, I wouldn't want to go back to Zulip after the this year's experience 😫 | 14:37:52 |
