@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusWe usually archive older release notes after a while10:13:09
@fsbof:matrix.orgfsbofsuggestion - how about I write something up - put it in the Wiki and let you two see what you reckon?10:13:52
@fsbof:matrix.orgfsbofIf it is worth the PR I can go from there10:14:09
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilThe NixOS wiki shouldn't really be used anymore though, it's not maintained at all10:14:13
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilIf not the release notes, nix.dev could be an alternative10:14:35
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilWhich is maintained by the docs team10:15:19
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusI'm not sure all the unbreaking recipes will be maintained / accepted by nix.dev, but if so, that's great news10:16:20
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilAs a member of the docs team, I think having a page for that would be fitting :)10:16:51
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilAnd actually there is already: https://nix.dev/recipes/troubleshooting10:17:20
@fsbof:matrix.orgfsbofOh my - I don't think I've really looked at nix.dev... I do not envy the job of the docs team!10:19:40

Eh, it's not too bad, but help appreciated! It's become official recently, and it's being worked on continuously, but as every part of the Nix ecosystem, resources are comstrained :)

@fsbof:matrix.orgfsbofI just tried to suggest a change to the troubleshooting page above, but it wants me to 'fork' a repository! My git skills are still very basic (still using SVN <ducks>)10:26:24
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil fsbof: Yeah that's how GitHub works, it's not too bad though, see https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/working-with-files/managing-files/editing-files#editing-files-in-another-users-repository 10:27:50
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilForking is only needed once, it just allows you to have your own version of the nix.dev sources, which you can edit as you want, then those edits can be proposed to the official nix.dev sources10:29:04
@fsbof:matrix.orgfsbofOk - I'll give it go. I have some time over the weekend.10:30:38
@fsbof:matrix.orgfsbofThank you10:32:25
