 nbp | Stupid question, has anybody contacted github asking what they think of the problem / solution? After all being one of the most contributed repository, this might be impactful for them. | 16:14:29 |
| infinisil | nbp: Not a stupid question, that's a good idea! | 16:43:01 |

| infinisil | We're getting really close to opening an official RFC | 22:27:36 |

 Winter (she/her) | infinisil: Filing an issue is the best way to report feedback, right? Or can/should I just say it here? | 17:25:03 |
| Winter (she/her) | (On the auto-called packages draft.) | 17:25:11 |
| Winter (she/her) | Ah, my issue was addressed in the above PR. (The detailed design mentioned pkgs/auto instead of unit at the start.) | 17:27:27 |
| infinisil | Winter (she/her): Nice :D. But yes feel free to open issues or PR's to that repo | 21:53:00 |

|  Growpotkin joined the room. | 16:54:47 |
| Growpotkin | Robert Hensing (roberth): beat me to the punch on just about every comment I was going to add to the RFC haha. Thanks for saving me the effort. | 16:59:56 |
| Growpotkin | The only area that I would expand ( possibly in a footnote ) is "why pkg-fun.nix instead of default.nix?".
On the surface this change likely seems the largest to an average reader.
Something along the lines of "default.nix was never really the appropriate filename, this change leaves default.nix available for it's original purpose for packages which choose to use it, etc..." | 17:02:23 |

On the surface this change likely seems the largest to an average reader.
Something along the lines of "default.nix was never really the appropriate filename based on Nixpkgs' usage. This change leaves default.nix available for it's original purpose for packages which choose to use it, etc..." | 17:02:59 |
| Growpotkin | There's likely a way to phrase it that avoids philosophical debate about what default.nix ought to be used for though. It is the internet after all so I'd hate to open up a can of worms that derails relevant discussion. | 17:05:04 |
