 infinisil | Well, at least all the filesystems I know use a key-value representation of directories, you can't have the same key twice | 10:04:38 |
 PowerUser64 | I mean the computer doesn't really care where the file is | 10:06:10 |
| PowerUser64 | and organizing things by a way that classifies them beyond "this one's name starts with NE" seems like it's more useful to people who use the repo | 10:07:55 |

| infinisil | Well, RFC 140 is accepted now, we can't change that | 10:10:27 |
| PowerUser64 | yeah not much that can be done now | 10:10:46 |
| PowerUser64 | Redacted or Malformed Event | 10:11:08 |
| PowerUser64 | I hope it all goes well in the end | 10:11:34 |
| infinisil | I really think most people do agree with how it's going. I don't think there was a single person arguing for keeping the directory structure throughout the RFC | 10:13:00 |
| infinisil | Being able to tell new contributors "if you want to package foo, put it here" is very nice | 10:13:51 |
| PowerUser64 | Maybe #146 can help remedy some of my frustrations | 10:15:14 |
 lassulus | I think cateories should be a list in the meta field rather than a folder stuff is in | 10:16:01 |

I really think most people do agree with how it's going. I don't think there was a single person arguing for keeping the directory structure throughout the RFC Yep, the discussion skipped the contents of the RFC entirely and directly jumped to the bike shedding part ^^ | 10:16:15 |
 @syphoxy:matrix.org | RFC 146 is really promising and I hope it goes through as quickly as RFC 140 did. | 14:17:09 |
| @piegames:matrix.org | I'm not optimistic about that. 140 enjoyed a wide community consensus which is otherwise pretty rare | 15:26:47 |
| infinisil | I'm tending towards accepting 146, it's not bad. However I also think it's a distraction from other problems that would be more important to fix | 17:24:12 |
| infinisil | Losing the categorisation seems very minor in comparison | 17:28:02 |
| infinisil | Unrelated to that, an observation relating to PR CI checks in general: Aren't they kind of flawed? Because the main branch continuously updates, but the CI checks for each PR aren't re-run | 17:32:53 |
 K900 | They are | 17:33:07 |
| K900 | Ideally we'd have bors | 17:33:11 |
| K900 | But it's hard | 17:33:28 |
