 ris_ | is it too late to remove packages for 24.05? (thinking of old versions of things that won't see 6 months more support...) | 10:56:16 |
| ris_ | i'm going to assume if the answer was "no" someone would have screamed by now | 11:47:36 |
 vcunat | I suppose it's much better to remove them now before the official release then later - or than risking that they will be vulnerable and relied on. | 13:39:09 |

 hexa | We should maybe also backport the v8 bump if possible. We're currently rolling with a 3y old version | 13:56:58 |

Figure out if we deprecate macos 10.12 for next release
The first step of the SDK update was a refactor, so 10.12 support could be preserved if it’s decided not to deprecate it yet.

| @jacg:matrix.org | Release note PRs should continue on master, and rely on the automated backports to propagate them into the release branch ? | 07:25:03 |
 Alyssa Ross | Yeah, otherwise they'd end up being lost from the collection of release notes for all releases that exists on master. | 07:25:46 |
| vcunat | Either way you want to sync on both branches, at least eventually. | 07:26:20 |

 Jan Tojnar | there are several packages affected by the glib security fix – https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/314043#issuecomment-2129228878 | 09:33:53 |

Two days before expected release date, change stableBranch to true in Hydra and wait for the channel to update.
Should I do this now?
| 07:36:10 |
| Weijia | Yes, please. | 07:59:35 |
| vcunat | Done. For nixpkgs (darwin) it's apparently called officialRelease instead. No idea why. | 08:11:48 |
| vcunat | I'd hope that by the end of the day this should hit channels. | 08:12:36 |
| Weijia | Thanks a lot! | 08:52:44 |
