Weijia: wdym backup 😄 To me, this means "if there's no release manager candidate in the next few weeks, think of me or Jonathan" | 11:16:12 |
 hexa | ok, but we are kinda on the spot here | 11:16:31 |
| hexa | the first announcement should have happened a few days ago | 11:16:42 |
| hexa | and breaking changes freeze is supposed to be in <10d | 11:16:57 |
| hexa | and we need a primary to take care of the announcements etc. | 11:17:15 |
| hexa | so I'm not sure what backup means in the primary/secondary relationship | 11:17:32 |
| hexa | and we'd rather onboard new people into the role, when they're available | 11:17:48 |
| hexa | we're lots of previous release managers in this room who can answer questions, and we have a release documentation that we've iterated on for a few releases now | 11:19:46 |

I've modified the reply on Discourse, I'm now applying for a (primary) release manager position. Hi! Thanks for the application! I think you would be a great fit for the primary release manager role. I haven't made the decision on who will be the new release editor yet, and I'm still sorting things out. Once that's done, we can start the onboarding. | 04:37:17 |
|  PowerUser64 joined the room. | 05:25:58 |
| PowerUser64 | If there's a release that needs editing, count me in! I'm a native US English speaker and I have an eye for grammatical problems. Let me know what needs to be done! | 05:30:22 |

| PowerUser64 | Regardless of what needs to be done, I think this sounds like a fun role. I'd love to know when things start moving on this. I shouldn't be a lead editor because I don't have experience specifically writing release notes, but I can certainly help if I have some guidance. | 05:38:25 |
