figsoda: don't forget about release editor as well :) Would you mind picking the release editors for me? I asked alejandrosame and they would be busy during 24.05, so we would need 2 new release editors. Thanks! | 01:53:57 |

Weijia: not sure when you want to meet, but I think it would be good to come up with the release schedule and plan the next steps up until ZHF. Probably this Saturday or Sunday evening in UTC+2? I'm counting 7 hours of time difference between us. | 02:27:14 |

 PowerUser64 | Weijia: I'm on PDT, which is UTC-7 right now. If you schedule a meeting, feel free to ping me and tell me when it is. I'll be fairly busy the next few days, but I'll be more available closer to and after the end of this month. What's our timeline for 24.5? | 04:04:06 |
| Weijia | https://nixos.github.io/release-wiki/Release-Process.html | 04:10:50 |
| Weijia | We're almost -7 weeks from release, so probably should start the first event asap | 04:12:02 |
| jonringer | I was expecting to go through 4.1 and 4.2 together https://nixos.github.io/release-wiki/Once-Appointed.html | 04:14:25 |
| jonringer | a lot of the "work" is pretty "copy, update, paste". If you feel confident to do it on your own, feel free to do so. Otherwise we go through it together | 04:16:06 |

 Randy Eckenrode | I assume cctools/ld64 would fall under binutils. Where does bumping the effective minimum version on Darwin fall on the breaking scale? The cctools/ld64 update may require a bump to 10.14 as the effective minimum version for building things. | 16:09:22 |

I assume cctools/ld64 would fall under binutils. Where does bumping the effective minimum version on Darwin fall on the breaking scale? The cctools/ld64 update may require a bump to 10.14 as the effective minimum version for building things. I think I'd ask for an x86_64-darwin jobset (and a public announcement) before approving a PR on this, even if it only contains a treewide substitution of "10.12" by "10.14" | 16:47:08 |
| jonringer | 10.14 is kind of "big" for macOS, C++14 (IIRC), and a few other tooling improvements landed in that release | 16:48:48 |
| jonringer | However, it was released in Sept 2018, so I think ~5 years is a pretty low bar | 16:49:20 |
