 jficz | right 🤦♂️ I'm overthinking too much | 09:16:17 |
 emily | don't worry, everyone is confused by the release process :P | 09:18:56 |
 Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | including the release managers ^^ | 09:22:27 |
| emily | sometimes especially 😆 | 09:24:06 |
 WeetHet | What are the requirements for becoming a release manager? | 10:56:15 |
| WeetHet changed their profile picture. | 10:59:13 |
 leona | Primarily being a committer. Some time after cleanup, there will be a call for the new release manager. Then it’s up to the current release manager to choose who they think is the right person for the job | 11:02:29 |
|  maralorn joined the room. | 18:33:23 |
| maralorn | I have a last minute addition to the release notes. Do I need to consider anything special? Asking partially since this is affecting the "highlights" section. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/409505 | 18:35:46 |
| leona | that's okay | 18:36:12 |
| leona | just merge to master and backport to 25.05 | 18:36:17 |
 raf | Reminds me, I've bumped nh from 3.6.0 to 4.0.x, which made changes to a variable used by it; since the NixOS module handles setting the correct variable, should I be adding this to the release notes or would it be redundant | 18:38:11 |
| leona | i think this is internal enough so that it's only relevant for the Nixpkgs release notes if at all | 18:38:00 |
