 @jamesmowery:matrix.org | What does this have to do with community contribution? | 14:29:58 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | Can we focus on community contribution, that's all I'm asking for. | 14:30:10 |
 raitobezarius | You sent a link to your NixOS repository and I think it would have been enough proof to qualify you, but now that you behaved this way, I am leaning on the original judgement. | 14:30:24 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | That's totally fine. If I'm rejected. I just want a clear explanation and want something I can clearly document. | 14:31:10 |
 infinisil | Also, just to be clearer about the bar: Imo the contribution needs to be:
- Verifiable
- Be usable by others | 14:31:46 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | infinisil: totally makes sense. I just ask... why isn't that in the original requirements? | 14:32:27 |
| infinisil | Your linked comment was verifiable but not usable by others. And your IRC help is usable by others but not verifiable | 14:32:35 |
| raitobezarius | From my part, let me add that we reviewed your history because we had nothing more to use to weigh on your case and we found: https://old.reddit.com/r/NixOS/comments/1clf7v8/separating_nix_drama_discussions_from/l2uws01/.
Given https://github.com/NixOS/foundation/blob/master/governance/zulip/coc.md, I am afraid that this won't work out. | 14:33:31 |
 7c6f434c | https://logs.nix.samueldr.com/ seems to be still up, so IRC help in #nixos should be verifiable, no? | 14:33:32 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | Okay. So then let's clear the board. Contributing my NixOS configuration and sharing it on GitHub and the fact that "You sent a link to your NixOS repository and I think it would have been enough proof to qualify you" | 14:34:45 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | So... I was qualifiable, but now I'm not? | 14:35:05 |
| infinisil | If a link to the chat logs was sent we could've considered it | 14:35:11 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | Again, just to clear the slate. It was said that I would be accepted if I just submitted my github link, which I did in my second attempt, and it was ignored. So is this request system a "you only get one chance" type thing? | 14:36:04 |

Again, just to clear the slate. It was said that I would be accepted if I just submitted my github link, which I did in my second attempt, and it was ignored. So is this request system a "you only get one chance" type thing? You were provided with additional rationale for why the judgement still stand. | 14:36:35 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | raitobezarius: Can you clarify why the judgment still stands? | 14:37:10 |
| infinisil | jamesmowery The main problem to me is that you're being very disrespectful by lashing out at this decision, I don't think that's okay | 14:37:22 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | Wouldn't you lash out? | 14:37:37 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | If someone told you that you would have been accepted... but now it's no? | 14:37:45 |
| infinisil | I would not :) | 14:37:52 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | infinisil: Can you prove that? | 14:38:07 |
 @hexa:lossy.network | Look, you can shitpost to reddit all day, but you need to learn that there are consequences to your actions. | 14:38:25 |
| raitobezarius | If you asked for joining the Zulip, surely you have understood there's a CoC and you read it. There's:
- excessive edits which seems to point out at unnecessary aggressiveness
- Reddit history which points out at misunderstanding of what the CoC is about or refusal to abide by the CoC while asking to join the governance talk
- your behavior in this room
| 14:38:41 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | @hexa so that's what it is! I figured there some real context behind this. | 14:38:53 |
| raitobezarius | This is the reason for why I lean on maintaining the original judgement. | 14:38:58 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | It was my reddit history. | 14:38:59 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | Okay, I'm satisfied with this. | 14:39:08 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | Thank you NixOS team for taking the time to respond. I will consider this your official verdict. | 14:39:19 |
| raitobezarius | Whether you would have been able to get through by just posting your NixOS configuration is irrelevant at this point | 14:39:20 |
| @jamesmowery:matrix.org | I appreciate all the things you do. | 14:39:23 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | You didn't clear the bar, and by the time your changes were made we already found that, so it was a rejection. | 14:39:25 |
