The implications of RFC 0085 are that these packages can not have breaking changes applied to them for six weeks leading up to a release date.

| Tristan Ross | We've hit the release critical packages update block. We have until the 25th to get any last breaking changes. | 03:05:33 |

 adamcstephens | Are we going to format the tree before 24.11? | 22:44:15 |
 SigmaSquadron | cc @infinisil:matrix.org
| 22:44:58 |
| emily | format would be easy to do across both branches at least | 22:45:32 |
| emily | even if it misses release | 22:45:37 |
 infinisil | Yeah as emily says, it doesn't really matter much when it happens | 22:45:58 |
| infinisil | Arguably after the release it better because there might be less open PRs | 22:46:21 |
| infinisil | * | 22:46:37 |
| infinisil | This has taken longer than anticipated, we're still hashing out some major annoyances with the format 😅 | 22:47:25 |

| raf | Are there any sprintable tasks I can perhaps take a look at before the release? Been going over the issues, but most seem to have a responder. | 10:10:10 |
 Arian | Going over PRs in release blockers issue is always nice | 10:13:03 |
| Arian | I have a PR or two that still needs review :) | 10:13:12 |

 linj | It is a bit weird that, unlike 24.05, there is no restriction for breaking changes to go to master now. | 06:58:28 |

| Tristan Ross | In reply to @me:linj.tech
It is a bit weird that, unlike 24.05, there is no restriction for breaking changes to go to master now. I just copied from the release wiki lol https://nixos.github.io/release-wiki/Release-Process.html | 07:01:28 |
| Tristan Ross | So probably the release wiki should be updated if we do want to have breaking changes freeze on master | 07:02:08 |
| emily | I was told that the branch names there were irrelevant and the intent is indeed that the total freeze is now | 09:58:40 |
| emily | we're starting ZHF in a few days, so | 09:58:51 |
