@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson * abathur: currently it appears the paper says there is an installer "working group" 18:49:58
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar joined the room.18:50:03
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonI don't think we have much of a formal notion of what "working group" is governance wise, would you like to be "bumped up" into a formal team?18:50:38
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonOne distinction made elsewhere is "working group = temporary group of people to get specific project done" vs "team = group of people working on something indefinitely"18:51:38
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonSo yes while teams are "more powerful", and also you've been working on installer stuff for a long time, I thought it would be good to before "promoting" you all into an indefinite obligation18:52:25
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson* So yes while teams are "more powerful", and also you've been working on installer stuff for a long time, I thought it would be good to ask you before "promoting" you all into an indefinite obligation18:57:02

In reply to @Ericson2314:matrix.org
One distinction made elsewhere is "working group = temporary group of people to get specific project done" vs "team = group of people working on something indefinitely"
I'll let them speak for themselves in more detail if they desire, but I believe the "temporary group of people" is actually a desired quality :P

@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonthat's fine if so!19:49:16
@abathur:matrix.orgabathurThe paper? 19:49:28
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonwe'll have to define what a working group is, but that can be done19:49:31
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson * abathur: currently it appears the paper trail says there is an installer "working group" 19:49:53
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonsorry, "paper" -> "paper trail"19:50:04

@abathur:matrix.orgabathurmatrix and eventual consistency :) 13:11:30
@abathur:matrix.orgabathuryeah, Cole is roughly right. I didn't give it the WG designation in the first place but I have at least been thinking of my own ~commitment here as ending after the hand-off we're trying to execute currently13:19:53
@abathur:matrix.orgabathuri think it's a good point and natural time for the org to make fresh decisions about whether it needs a team and such—as it grapples with questions around how to version/release the installer and how it should cycle relative to nix itself. 13:23:09
