In reply to @hexa:lossy.network
this feels like something that should be done once every release and a release manager wiki entry could be helpful to make sure it happens
I'll add it to my local checkout and PR it when I actually did it

@sielicki:matrix.orgsielickinot really sure where to ask this, but the nix-community/nixos-wsl repo is looking to get a nix tarball and installer onto the windows store and that may mean managing a windows build server and/or a microsoft-blessed signing key. nzbr or myself could reach out to microsoft directly for this, but that feels inappropriate given that there's a team dedicated to this sort of thing. https://github.com/nix-community/NixOS-WSL/issues/63 https://github.com/microsoft/WSL-DistroLauncher#publishing-pre-requisites who can I contact about this?16:32:02
@sielicki:matrix.orgsielickiI just think that key should be in the hands of someone on the infrastructure or releng team.16:32:43
@janne.hess:helsinki-systems.deJanne Heß maybe in the #infra:nixos.org channel? 17:20:36

@hexa:lossy.networkhexa since it will soon be time to ping all package set maintainers, how could I formally join the python-band without subscribing to the madness that is pkgs/development/python-modules via CODEOWNERS? 16:14:40
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa * since it will soon be time to ping all package set maintainers, how could I formally join the python-band without subscribing to the madness that is pkgs/development/python-modules via CODEOWNERS? Subscribing there makes GitHub notifications entirely unusable. 16:15:08

I thought about that as well and my idea was to take the list of Subsystem: @maintainer and put it into the release wiki. If every RM just uses this list, people who want to join/leave can just PR against the release wiki. Would that work for you?

@hexa:lossy.networkhexabetter, put it into the nixpkgs repo so people can manage it themselves17:30:16
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa * better yet, put it into the nixpkgs repo so people can manage it themselves17:30:29
@janne.hess:helsinki-systems.deJanne Heßgreat, I didn't think of that :O17:30:41
@janne.hess:helsinki-systems.deJanne Heßmaintainers/subsystem-maintainers.txt maybe?17:30:57
@hexa:lossy.networkhexain gentoo joining a team is managed by existing team members and advertised on a wiki page17:31:11
@janne.hess:helsinki-systems.deJanne HeßI'll PR it and wait for a discussion to arise 🤷17:32:47
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír Čunát We have stuff like meta.maintainers = teams.gnome.members; 17:35:13
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátI mean... why txt?17:35:51
@janne.hess:helsinki-systems.deJanne HeßDo you think all people would be happy with being part of the team-list?17:36:37
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaoh yeah, reusing maintainer teams is a good idea17:38:54
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaI think this is a structured solution and a good middle ground17:39:25
@janne.hess:helsinki-systems.deJanne Heß

@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsondon't worry about it :)17:56:17
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧They could also be thrown into the maintainer teams. Than we can use them in derivation and so, too.22:44:31
@janne.hess:helsinki-systems.deJanne HeßI will try tomorrow if I find the time22:44:58
