 Jan Tojnar | Also the config will also apply to specializations containing specializations (not sure if that is a thing). | 21:18:22 |
 Solène Rapenne (she/her) | Jan Tojnar yes this can be inline within the imports but I find it very not practical | 21:54:52 |
| Solène Rapenne (she/her) | I dunno if it could be possible to cover specialisation in man configuration.nix ? | 22:05:18 |

that's cool, someone wrote https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Specialisation after my tweag blog post. I added this section because it's a very useful use case but totally impossible to figure out (infinisil found how to do that). Could someone tell me if it's understandable? https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Specialisation#Special_case:_the_default_non-specialised_entry cool, config.specialisation != {} is a clever hack! I used to use mkRemove to remove items from a list in specialisation. | 22:16:44 |

Jan Tojnar yes this can be inline within the imports but I find it very not practical I am somewhat worried about perpetuating the misconception that files are something special (I have seen newcomers confused by this) but I am not how to formulate it better without it becoming too clumsy or more confusing | 22:43:07 |
| Solène Rapenne (she/her) | I still don't understand why the code can't be put into configuration.nix ^^' so I used a file to keep things clean instead of a big chunk into imports | 22:43:56 |

 pennae | is the docbook-to-md migration for modules something the docs team wants to discuss? | 15:39:34 |

is the docbook-to-md migration for modules something the docs team wants to discuss? Is there also somewhere an issue I can look at that shows how it is done? | 19:56:37 |
| pennae | a-kenji: there's no single issue, just us going through the modules and slowly converting the docbook option descriptions to markdown as a first step. after that we'll have to find a renderer to replace the current xsltproc stack (a process that apparently got stuck, https://discourse.nixos.org/t/any-consensus-on-documentation-generation-tool-for-nixpkgs-manual/15550) | 19:59:51 |
| pennae | probably won't be too long before the conversion itself is done | 20:00:38 |

| pennae | we're hoping to at least have all options converted to MD for the 22.11 release and to have some warning in place for docbook descriptions during a transitional period | 20:09:20 |
