| john-rodewald | Hi everybody. Thanks a lot for taking care of this cycle's planning. 🙌 Have you maybe had a chance to discuss the date request above? Do you think it's feasible at all? | 08:05:21 |
 vcunat | I can't speak for the 25.11 team, but it's called .11 for November, so if you still do ZHF on the last of November, you can't manage to release during November. | 08:08:02 |
| vcunat | It's no huge deal to release later (I'd say); it happens sometimes that it gets delayed from the plans by a week or two and thus gets into the next month. | 08:09:23 |
| vcunat | But to plan in advance that we won't make it in November - sounds unusual to me. | 08:09:50 |
 leona | I'd personally really like to have a week to spare, just because for me it's cool to actually release in the month we planned for and also with winter holidays, I think it's good to leave people a week or two more to update their systems before everyone is on vacation. | 08:11:01 |
| vcunat | Either way, lots of failures on Hydra tend to remain even on the day of release. | 08:11:01 |
| vcunat | * Either way, lots of failures on Hydra tend to remain even on the day of release, so you'll surely be able to find some work to do. | 08:11:30 |
| leona | I see no problem for you fixing build issues after the release tho. Backports are quite possible | 08:11:37 |

Hey everyone! Thanks for the announcement.
I have a bit of a predicament: I organise ZHF hackathons before every release (https://zurich.nix.ug/), and sadly the venue we use could only offer us 29-30 November 2025 for this cycle.
This falls out of the proposed ZHF campaign, so it'll be quite a miserable ZHF.
I know it's a long-shot, but would there be any chance of moving the release forward a week? We found a different solution. No more need to change around any release dates. :) | 19:00:10 |
