Randy Eckenrode | * That incompatibility is a reason to target post-24.05 IMO. Apple changed ld64 in Xcode 14 to disallow nested static archives. The ecosystem should have adjusted by now, but there may be packages that haven’t yet (like Kyua). I tested with ld-prime, and it has the same behavior. It must have been an accident it worked before. | 12:12:18 |

Arian | Question. Why did we reset the revCount in 23.11 ? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commit/dc7b3febf8d862328d8704de5c8437d2df442c76 Where does the magic number 551362 come from? | 13:08:33 |

Arian | thanks! | 13:25:38 |
Arian | I guess I'll ahve to update that document regarding the AWS AMIs | 13:25:47 |
@stablejoy:matrix.org | Im reading the release wiki and following here. What can a beginner do to help? Its exciting but not sure how could I help | 13:44:37 |
raitobezarius | There's two tasks a beginner can do:
(a) You can look at pick up the garbage: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/projects/18?query=is%3Aopen+sort%3Aupdated-desc -- only if you have expertise with the aforementioned software, otherwise you may just create needless noise for people
(b) Wait for the Zero Hydra Failure process where the goal is to minimize all the failures | 13:49:54 |
@stablejoy:matrix.org | I understand, thanks | 13:51:01 |
jonringer | For the upcoming meeting for RMs and REs, the main points of the meeting I would like to address:
- Defining responsibility of REs, and updating the release wiki
- Rough roadmap for RE actions (to avoid trying to tackle everything before release)
- Try to answer any questions.
