@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringerAny objections to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/156355? otherwise I think I will clean it up, rebase, then merge it. It should be an improvement over what we had before03:19:25

@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringer tomberek: nrdxp Not sure when you two want to do the next call for release manager, but I would probably put the call out now. ZHF for 22.05 will be starting in ~10 weeks. 19:18:01
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberekIt's crossed my mind too. Plus there are stability issues with new kernels and things like https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/155054 cropping up.19:26:35
@hexa:lossy.networkhexastill no 22.05 blockers project 😢19:52:45
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaI wish the org owners would just set up a room where they track requests20:53:50
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaor set up any other way to request stuff20:54:17
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa

and interesting observation regarding the number of merged stable backports:

  • 19.03: 301
  • 19.09: 377
  • 20.03: 609
  • 20.09: 943
  • 21.05: 1291
  • 21.11: 892

We're 75 days (35%) into the current release
There are 137 days until its EOL.

Linear projection: 892 * (212/75) ~= 2.5k

23:43:45
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaI'm sure it will not come to this, the backports will very probably be slowing down later in the release cycle23:44:28
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa *

  • 20.03: 609

23:44:56
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaPretty sure this is a direct result of the backport action.23:47:16
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaIt was introduced on 2021-05-2423:47:35
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa Also 151 PRs tagged security in 75 days is pretty much two per day 23:49:45

@hexa:lossy.networkhexa oh and I only looked at the base:release-XX.YY, so I probably undercounted (missing at least base:staging-XX.YY and base:staging-next-XX.YY for newer release) 00:00:43
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberekDo you think our policy allows too much backports? I mean, if you backport every single thing, it's equivalent to staying on unstable.00:37:35
@hexa:lossy.networkhexahard to say from numbers alone00:38:25
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaI think we have rejected a number of stable backports, because we didn't see the reason to have them00:38:55
