@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Like, step 1 and step 2 11:31:26
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Step 1 is only relevant for the next 2 weeks, step 2 is primarily relevant after that (but people can start discussing stuff already, like we've seen on Discourse) 11:32:29
@edef1c:matrix.orgedefi feel like it might be good to signpost the timeline from time to time, also11:32:54
@edef1c:matrix.orgedeftransfer a little of yesterday's sense of urgency onwards11:33:40
@edef1c:matrix.orgedefbut not so much that it makes people feel rushed to like, come to conclusions early11:34:15
@edef1c:matrix.orgedefbasically whatever we can do to not go full bystander effect / waiting around11:35:15
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ infinisil: that really needs to be documented/explained somewhere (on the zulip) then, maybe in the announcements stream? as the vast majority of people involved will not have this background :) 11:35:37
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ likewise, specific questions/issues to deliberate should be posed, as per what edef said 11:36:03
@edef1c:matrix.orgedefnot necessarily too specific, but the high level goals yeah11:36:26
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆah, I see shlevy was faster with that11:36:29
@edef1c:matrix.orgedefand yeah, any background info is worth reiterating, in general i expect not everyone has read the proceedings closely and we still want their input11:37:00
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆright. we should assume that anyone joining the governance zulip will have basically no background on what happened so far11:37:46
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆgoing off the confusion I've seen in various places11:37:55
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Oh i guess we should not chat here then :P 11:41:32
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil I'll not be super online all the time today, but I count on y'all to do that knowledge transfer :D 11:42:32
@federicodschonborn:matrix.orgFederico Damiรกn Schonborn changed their profile picture.11:58:02
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆreminder to mods to close governance discussion on the Discourse12:09:38
@hexa:lossy.network@hexa:lossy.networkright12:13:02
@hexa:lossy.network@hexa:lossy.networkany specific discussion you have in mind?12:13:09
@hexa:lossy.network@hexa:lossy.networkwe already did https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixos-foundation-board-giving-power-to-the-community/44552/133?u=hexa earlier today12:13:25

reminder to mods to close governance discussion on the Discourse
there's no way to close "categories" as a hole afaict

* there's no way to close "categories" as a whole afaict
12:13:33
@danielle:fairydust.spacedanielleso it's probably a case of just close indiscriminately as they pop up12:13:53
@hexa:lossy.network@hexa:lossy.networkeven if you did, people would just post in another ๐Ÿ™‚ 12:13:53

In reply to @danielle:fairydust.space
so it's probably a case of just close indiscriminately as they pop up
works for me, honestly, as long as it is done sufficiently consistently and while clearly communicating that the governance discussions are now to go on the zulip (so that people understand why it was closed)
12:26:29
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆand I mean, if you tell people "new governance threads are not allowed" and they insist on making them anyway, that seems to steer pretty obviously into bannable behaviour12:27:38
@edef1c:matrix.orgedef slightly concerned that we might accidentally close off people's access to Zulip 12:28:21
@edef1c:matrix.orgedefsince the application process is at least in part on Discourse12:28:36
@edef1c:matrix.orgedef if the same person starts governance threads repeatedly, that is a different issue 12:28:52
@danielle:fairydust.spacedaniellethat bit we're not gonna do anything with (Aside from maybe throw on a 1 post/day slow mode)12:29:01
