our resident release artist I'd love to give it a try for the forseeable future, becuase it is a really good exercise, and i already learned a ton :)
I had a background working with youtube thumbnails, then UI for some of my projects and like a few logos. This is another level! | 12:28:22 |

| dotlambda | Where can I find the definition of "release critical packages"? | 01:43:45 |
 jopejoe1 | We currently track the definition and which ones it applies to on https://nixos.github.io/release-wiki/Release-Critical-Packages.html#list-of-release-critical-packages | 01:49:53 |
 vcunat | It would be best if the release schedule had a hyperlink to that page. | 06:32:37 |

 emily | leona: jopejoe1: are we okay giving a freeze exemption to breaking changes that only affect override interfaces of specific packages, within the next ~week?
my feeling is that it should be fine, because we generally don't give very strong stability guarantees to override interfaces in general – e.g. every time we backport a version bump that drops a no-longer-used dependency we break override interfaces on stable
context is https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/445668 and possibly https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/453948
(the former is zero rebuilds and only changes override interfaces, though there will be a follow-up clean-up on staging that will cause rebuilds and slightly change the meaning of e.g. llvmPackages.override on Darwin, but it needs a few more changes before it's ready to land so checking re: the deadline)
| 15:42:23 |
| leona | Looks fine to me. Additionally, I like this effort too :) | 15:47:26 |
| jopejoe1 | I don't remember us ever having any grantu for the overriding interface and see it more of an unstable interface with a use at your risk level of support. | 15:50:42 |
