 yaya | Should be fixed in a few minutes. CI is still doing its thing | 13:42:13 |
| Tom | (Mentioning it because it's part of the branch-off checklist: i took care of the incus image yesterday and 26.05 is now already available via https://images.linuxcontainers.org/) | 13:51:57 |
| hexa | missing merge queue on staging-26.05 still | 17:18:25 |

Two days before expected release date, change stableBranch to true in Hydra and wait for the channel to update
We do this today, right?
| 06:54:51 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Time to merge stuff that must be in channel during the release announcement, I'd say. | 06:55:16 |
| Vladimír Čunát | (e.g. lutris-free is annoying but perhaps not a blocker.) | 06:57:29 |

| yaya | yes, I was about to ping the infra people today | 12:34:49 |
| hexa | hi, we are the infra people | 12:38:49 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Anything remaining? | 12:38:54 |
| Vladimír Čunát | (I switched the jobset settings now.) | 12:39:02 |
| yaya | thanks for flipping the switch :) | 13:22:25 |

| Vladimír Čunát | Uh, the trivial 26.11 bump in a2e55e31d6b broke nixosTests.zfs.installer, blocking the nixos-unstable channel. No idea how. I retried locally a few times. Hydra logs e.g. at https://hydra.nixos.org/build/330657032 | 10:20:42 |
