@dooy:matrix.org@dooy:matrix.orgI am wondering if there's a specific strategy for organizing tags from general to specific topics, like to be more consistent with naming? 16:33:40

I suggest starting with something more simple-minded and just write something down at all, in order to figure out which topics even warrant a tag and what to call it.

@danielsidhion:nixos.devdanielsidhionI just did a re-run and it seems like a real issue, I opened an issue about it02:33:33
@lurkki:pikaviestin.fiLurkki Noticed makeDesktopItem is undocumented, in which section in the manual should it go? 10:27:13
@danielsidhion:nixos.devdanielsidhionIf you want to use an existing section, "trivial build helpers" is probably the best one to put it in. If we were to create a new section, what sort of things would you like to group together with it (so we can figure out a better section name)?11:27:57
@lurkki:pikaviestin.fiLurkki Not sure about grouping, since I'm unfamiliar with most of pkgs/build-support 12:14:35

@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Shahar "Dawn" Or (mightyiam): Could you consider changing the name from eelco to something else? It doesn't feel right to use a person's name as a project name in general, but especially if that person is very well-known in the community already. 20:06:28
