@leona:leona.isleonaI started modifying the original release announcement at https://md.leona.is/ec3cH-kcThye6UGIhO-gqA#. It still needs some work before it will be a draft PR in the marketing repo12:49:40
@leona:leona.isleona

especially I'm unhappy with the

NixOS is already known as the most up to date distribution while also being the distribution with the most packages.

this sounds exactly like we want every possible package in Nixpkgs, which we should really not. If anything has a good idea..

@soenke:hack-hro.desoenke* maybe focus on fairly up to date with possibility to use newest packages where needed12:55:40

  • removed xxx packages in favor of scecurity and maintainability
