 Jens Petersen | * So similar to nixos actually - maybe just a month earlier | 13:56:56 |
| Jens Petersen | * So similar to nixos actually - maybe just a month earlier: we released F43 at the end of Oct (with gnome 49 etc) | 13:57:20 |
| Jens Petersen | Also extra difficulty is I am trying to support both nix-daemon and without also | 13:58:30 |
| Jens Petersen | * 6 months - but I already built nix for current releases too: should go into the testing repo maybe tomorrow | 13:59:07 |
 Mic92 | 6 months would align well with NixOS. | 14:04:42 |
| Jens Petersen | Right - assuming we can keep up with the deps 😅👅 | 14:10:32 |

| Mic92 | Actually we are often quiet behind with the deps because we build nix with the current nixos stable release :) | 14:11:45 |

| Jens Petersen | I see 👌 | 14:13:21 |
 Matthew Kenigsberg | Mic92: FYI https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer/issues/57#issuecomment-3581643508, can you glance at that PR as well? | 14:44:29 |
| Mic92 | Matthew Kenigsberg: I noticed those new fastly rules don't work. | 14:45:06 |
| Matthew Kenigsberg | Which ones? I think they're working so long as a release is marked as latest. All the releases got marked as pre-release which I just fixed | 14:45:49 |
| Mic92 | Ah | 14:46:15 |
| Mic92 | Sorry for that. | 14:46:23 |
| Matthew Kenigsberg | No problem! | 14:46:39 |

Feel free. Here what i think we should do next: test it on all platforms we want to support, than create an unforked version of the repo as nix-installer with a new Readme at nix-installer because otherwise pull requests go to the wrong place. Document the installer from experimental as beta in this readme to invite more people to test.
I think in an ideal world it's clear what functionality is shared between DetSys and NixOS, and then there are some PRs that should go upstream to DetSys and we continue syncing
That might be unrealistic though. Good topic to discuss in the next meeting
| 14:49:04 |
| Mic92 | like factoring out crates? | 14:52:31 |
| Matthew Kenigsberg | Yeah I think that could be good | 14:54:08 |
| Mic92 | cole-h: would be interested in such a thing? | 14:58:04 |
 cole-h | I think so, yeah, as long as logic changes aren't in the same PR(s) factoring out the crates (so it's easily demonstrable nothing was changed by the crate separation).
Especially interested if it would be useful to you guys to keep up with any fixes we make, I know historically that's been a bit of a tangled mess because of various things we've done heh. | 15:29:30 |

 abathur | chance I'll be tied up during call tomorrow, but I won't really know until time | 03:08:34 |
| cole-h | Similarly, I'll be OOO the 17th and 31st. The 17th I can make it if y'all still want to meet one last time this year, and I think we should cancel the 31st for obvious reasons :p | 03:54:14 |
| Mic92 | I would be available today | 06:27:02 |
| Matthew Kenigsberg | We're on if you're around Mic92 | 15:08:04 |
| Mic92 | coming | 15:27:12 |
| Matthew Kenigsberg | Dropped the notes here https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-installer-workgroup/21495/34?u=mkenigs | 15:56:02 |
| Mic92 | Matthew Kenigsberg: we just discussed to move the next meeting of google meets so let other people join easier: https://jitsi.lassul.us/nix-installer | 15:58:36 |
| Mic92 | I ask jfly to update the calendar event | 15:59:39 |
