| Scrumplex | I think release manager just sounds much scarier than release editor. It feels like there is much more responsibility involved with that ^^ | 17:50:03 |
 Tristan Ross | Yeah, I was also hoping to mention this at Planet Nix during the State of the Union but there wasn't time for it. | 17:51:06 |

I'd be willing to jump in if no one else is interested. I have commit access That's great, I'll see at the end of the week. | 17:51:35 |
 hexa | the reality is that release manager has a baseline commitment and can be much more involved if you want to make it a great release cycle | 17:57:34 |

 dish [Fox/It/She] | I specifically only applied for release editor since that's what I'm confident I'm strongest in, and I also cannot dedicate the time commitment to being the release manager for a release. Maybe a dual release manager, like what we have for release editors, would be something to consider for the future? That way we could do a similar mentor/mentee relationship like release editors now, and can also have a bit of redundancy in case of any issues(health, mental, physical, whatever) | 16:04:47 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | that might help the release process run a little smoother | 16:04:55 |

| Tristan Ross | The previous release manager helps the new one out | 16:23:53 |
| Tristan Ross | Though, the release wiki does a decent job of things | 16:24:06 |
|  avocadoom changed their profile picture. | 16:35:44 |
 Morgan (@numinit) | I was asked the other day (I've got my commit bit in progress) and would like someone from another city to have a chance. Tristan and I are in the same SNUG, and while that would be convenient NixOS is a global community so I'll respectfully decline this time. Some other time, though. :-) | 20:39:30 |
| Morgan (@numinit) | Would certainly be neat to look over shoulders at, and hope the process goes well | 20:40:28 |

 infinisil | Tristan Ross Suggestion: For a release manager, create a Nixpkgs issue and ping the entire Nixpkgs committers team. Those are the only persons that can take the position, so it's much more focused than anything else | 18:19:37 |

| infinisil | Tristan Ross: Oh, turns out that team notifications are disabled :/ | 19:22:53 |
| infinisil | We could briefly turn them on though | 19:23:17 |
| Tristan Ross | Fun | 19:23:39 |
| Tristan Ross | I pinned it at least | 19:23:45 |
| infinisil | Yeah I'll get another org owner in #org_owners:nixos.org to approve enabling the pings for this | 19:24:03 |
| infinisil | Done in https://matrix.to/#/!DMULJFTtTWdmyAxeLd:nixos.org/$l_mf299VtW5_Xtt-E3z_Ptgxrb0Iixl9TGB7i6lHMSI?via=nixos.org&via=matrix.org&via=lassul.us | 19:26:29 |
