 dish [Fox/It/She] | When will the "Let's have a great release cycle"/cycle announcement posts go out for 25.11? Based on my rough estimates they're released around the middle of the month two before the cycle(so around now in september for a mid-nov release). Just want to make sure everything's working smoothly, and to see if there's anything I can do as release editor atm | 19:43:28 |

 leona | We're preparing a schedule atm that we will publish in the next few days. Then we can have a meeting too (I still have one exam on tuesday, so unfortunately i'm somewhat busy :/) | 20:23:55 |

| ners | 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? | 08:32:05 |

| 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 |
 Vladimír Čunát | 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 |
| Vladimír Čunát | 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 |
| Vladimír Čunát | 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 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Either way, lots of failures on Hydra tend to remain even on the day of release. | 08:11:01 |
| Vladimír Čunát | * 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 |

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 |

| tornax | Hi! May I ask if the new crowdsec module may not be added to stable for the next release (yet) please? It feels like as if there is still some work to do (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/446307). So I'd like to keep its config as unstable for the time being. | 19:08:33 |

| Vladimír Čunát | If you keep the PR as draft until the 25.11 fork-off happens... | 19:54:49 |
