Sandro | yeah, maybe. Coudln't join the meeting because I had work to do | 17:18:34 |
infinisil | I would've liked to keep voting out of this, because it comes with a lot of problems, but I guess it's fine if it's only used as a last-resort | 17:19:03 |
problems | i think the big takeaway i have from the article is that no matter what decision-making process you use, the decision doesn't need to be final, it can be valuable to keep it an open conversation even after a plan of action is decided | 17:20:46 |
Rick (Mindavi) | I also think that requiring some technical implementation to go with your arguments helps weed out at least impossible or very impractical things | 17:22:08 |

infinisil | tomberek: Thanks, Request accepted! | 15:20:38 |
infinisil | tomberek: From your availability, it looks like the current time of 15:00 UTC doesn't work for you right? Moving it to 18:00 UTC is quite late though, that would be 20:00 for most European people | 15:22:07 |
| Andreas Schrägle left the room. | 15:31:34 |
infinisil | For transparency, I am currently contracting part-time (25%) for Flox (also did on and off in the past). My past work for Flox is where a part of the motivation for an architectural nixpkgs redesign comes from, since they're heavy users of nixpkgs and have run into problems with its inconsistencies | 15:33:26 |
infinisil | My time on this team however is sponsored by Tweag, and all my opinions are my own, I started this team from my own motivation, it's not something Tweag asked me to do :) | 15:34:46 |
infinisil | Having worked with tomberek in the past I think he's a good fit for the team from his experience and motivation for Nix and nixpkgs :D | 15:36:02 |

problems | i'm considering joining but not sure what i can commit to atm | 15:50:00 |
K900 | Same | 15:57:03 |
K900 | I've got like negative free time | 15:57:13 |
K900 | Realistically | 15:57:16 |
infinisil | Awesome! Some commitment is required, but as long as you're responsive and can keep in touch with the team it should be fine | 16:05:02 |
