John Ericson | Upstream doesn't have prerogative on downstream packaging style, I know | 21:03:59 |
emily | I don't think it is a good idea based on past precedent. i would be perfectly happy to bump to the new version with the old packaging immediately after branch off | 21:04:14 |
John Ericson | my claim of authority there is not "I am a Nix developer" but "there was an RFC about layering" | 21:04:23 |
emily | if it goes swimmingly, then next time around that's something we can point to | 21:04:39 |
emily | we listened, talked, worked together, made a show of cooperation by changing the plan in response to concerns, and it went totally fine | 21:05:01 |
emily | i would be very happy with that outcome | 21:05:09 |
emily | we could also ship a patching interface that works with both old and new packaging in 25.05 | 21:06:06 |
